Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RG2012N-3013-C-T5 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Requirements:

• Resistance value: 301 kOhms (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±10ppm/°C (all substitutes match)
• Composition: Thin film (all substitutes match)
• AEC-Q200 automotive qualification (all substitutes maintain)

Mechanical Compatibility Requirements:

• Package: 0805 (2012 Metric) (all substitutes match)
• Physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W (all substitutes match)
• Number of terminations: 2 (all substitutes match)

Tolerance Upgrade Path: Substitute parts are grouped by tolerance specification. The original part specifies ±0.25% tolerance. Available substitutes offer improved tolerance grades of ±0.1% and ±0.05%, representing upgrades in precision without compromising compatibility.

Power Rating Consideration: The original part is rated at 0.125W. Vishay Dale substitutes (TNPW series) provide 0.26W rating, representing a power capability upgrade while maintaining the same package footprint.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Same Tolerance): The RG2012N-3013-C-T5 has no direct equivalent with identical ±0.25% tolerance among active products. The closest tolerance upgrade is ±0.1%, available in RG2012N-3013-B-T5 (Susumu) or TNPW0805301KBYEN/TNPW0805301KBYEA (Vishay Dale).

For Precision-Critical Applications: RG2012N-3013-W-T1 and RG2012N-3013-W-T5 offer ±0.05% tolerance, providing superior precision while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Both are active products from Susumu with full AEC-Q200 compliance.

For Enhanced Power Capability: TNPW0805301KBYEN and TNPW0805301KBYEA provide 0.26W power rating (versus 0.125W original), extended operating temperature to 175°C, and moisture-resistant construction. These Vishay Dale components maintain ±0.1% tolerance and full automotive compliance.

Product Status Consideration: All substitute parts listed carry active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity. The original RG2012N-3013-C-T5 is obsolete and should be replaced in new designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG2012N-3013-B-T5 be used as a direct replacement for RG2012N-3013-C-T5?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance (301 kOhms), package (0805), power rating (0.125W), temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The RG2012N-3013-B-T5 provides improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and is an active product, making it suitable for direct substitution.

Q: What is the difference between RG2012N-3013-W-T1 and RG2012N-3013-W-T5?

A: Both parts are identical in all electrical and mechanical specifications, including ±0.05% tolerance, 301 kOhms resistance, and 0805 package. The difference lies in packaging format (T1 versus T5 designations), which relates to tape reel specifications. Selection depends on assembly equipment compatibility.

Q: Are Vishay Dale TNPW0805301KBYEN and TNPW0805301KBYEA interchangeable?

A: Yes. Both components are electrically and mechanically identical, with 301 kOhms resistance, ±0.1% tolerance, 0.26W power rating, and 0805 package. The designations (BYEN versus BYEA) reflect packaging or manufacturing lot variations. Both are active products with full AEC-Q200 compliance.

Q: Can I use TNPW0805301KBYEN in place of RG2012N-3013-C-T5?

A: Yes. The TNPW0805301KBYEN maintains the same 301 kOhms resistance, 0805 package, ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The Vishay Dale part offers improved tolerance (±0.1%), higher power rating (0.26W), extended temperature range (-55°C ~ 175°C), and active product status. Physical dimensions are compatible with identical footprint and termination count.

Q: What is the maximum operating temperature difference between substitutes?

A: The original RG2012N-3013-C-T5 and Susumu substitutes (RG2012N-3013-B-T5, RG2012N-3013-W-T1, RG2012N-3013-W-T5) operate to 155°C. Vishay Dale TNPW series substitutes extend to 175°C, providing 20°C additional thermal margin. This difference is relevant only for applications operating near the upper temperature limit.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed—RG2012N-3013-B-T5, RG2012N-3013-W-T1, RG2012N-3013-W-T5, TNPW0805301KBYEN, and TNPW0805301KBYEA—are ROHS3 compliant, matching the original RG2012N-3013-C-T5 compliance status.

Q: Which substitute offers the best tolerance specification?

A: RG2012N-3013-W-T1 and RG2012N-3013-W-T5 both offer ±0.05% tolerance, the tightest specification available among active substitutes. These Susumu components maintain all other electrical and mechanical parameters identical to the original part while providing superior precision.
