Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RG2012N-304-W-T5 is based on strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part RG2012N-304-W-T1 maintains identical specifications in the following key areas:

• Resistance value and tolerance (300 kOhms ±0.05%)
• Power rating (0.125W / 1/8W)
• Package form factor (0805 / 2012 Metric)
• Thin film composition
• Temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C)
• Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C)
• Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification
• Anti-sulfur construction
• RoHS3 compliance
• MSL 1 rating

The only difference between these parts is the tape reel specification (T5 versus T1), which relates to packaging configuration and does not affect electrical or mechanical performance in the circuit application.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RG2012N-304-W-T5 and RG2012N-304-W-T1 are active production parts from Susumu with full AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging and supply chain requirements rather than electrical performance.

The RG2012N-304-W-T5 is suitable for applications requiring T5 tape reel packaging configuration with current inventory of 1197 pieces. The RG2012N-304-W-T1 offers the same electrical and mechanical specifications with higher inventory availability at 11711 pieces and T1 tape reel packaging.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and anti-sulfur construction for automotive reliability. The identical thin film composition, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range ensure equivalent circuit performance across all specified operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG2012N-304-W-T1 be used as a direct replacement for RG2012N-304-W-T5?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The difference is limited to tape reel packaging specification (T1 versus T5). Direct board-level substitution is valid for all circuit applications.

Q: What does the T5 and T1 designation indicate?

A: These designations refer to the tape reel configuration used for component packaging and automated assembly. They do not affect the resistor's electrical characteristics, physical dimensions, or performance in the circuit.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both RG2012N-304-W-T5 and RG2012N-304-W-T1 carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and anti-sulfur construction, meeting automotive reliability standards.

Q: What is the tolerance specification and how does it affect circuit design?

A: Both parts are specified at ±0.05% tolerance, representing high-precision thin film resistor construction. This tight tolerance is suitable for precision analog circuits, reference networks, and applications requiring stable resistance values across temperature and time.

Q: Is the 0805 package compatible with standard PCB assembly equipment?

A: Yes. The 0805 (2012 Metric) package is a standard surface mount form factor compatible with conventional pick-and-place assembly equipment and reflow soldering processes.

Q: What is the temperature coefficient specification?

A: Both parts specify ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient, indicating minimal resistance variation across the -55°C to 155°C operating range. This specification is typical for thin film resistor technology.

Q: Are these parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RG2012N-304-W-T5 and RG2012N-304-W-T1 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting environmental regulatory requirements.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level and handling requirement?

A: Both parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Standard handling procedures for surface mount components apply without special moisture control requirements.
