Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RG2012N-560-C-T5 is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

Mandatory Equivalence Parameters:

  • Resistance value: 56 Ohms
  • Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
  • Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric)
  • Composition: Thin Film
  • Temperature coefficient: ±10ppm/°C
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
  • Automotive rating: AEC-Q200
  • Anti-sulfur construction

Allowable Variation Parameter:

  • Tolerance: The RG2012N-560-C-T5 specifies ±0.25% tolerance. Substitute parts with tighter (lower) tolerance values (±0.1% or ±0.05%) are electrically compatible and represent performance upgrades, as they maintain or exceed the original tolerance specification.

All substitute parts listed are manufactured by Susumu within the RG series and maintain identical mechanical dimensions, thermal characteristics, and regulatory compliance.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: RG2012N-560-B-T5

The RG2012N-560-B-T5 provides direct functional equivalence with improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±0.25%). This part is active in production status and maintains all automotive and compliance certifications of the original component. Selection of this substitute is appropriate for applications where the original tolerance specification is acceptable and tighter tolerance is beneficial.

Secondary Substitutes: RG2012N-560-W-T1 and RG2012N-560-W-T5

Both RG2012N-560-W-T1 and RG2012N-560-W-T5 offer the highest tolerance specification (±0.05%) within the substitute group. These parts are active in production and provide enhanced precision for applications requiring tighter resistance control. The RG2012N-560-W-T1 has higher inventory availability (2145 units) compared to RG2012N-560-W-T5 (713 units).

All substitute parts maintain identical mechanical fit, thermal performance, and automotive reliability ratings. Selection among substitutes should be based on tolerance requirements and packaging format availability (Tape & Reel for all active substitutes).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG2012N-560-B-T5 be used as a direct replacement for RG2012N-560-C-T5?

A: Yes. The RG2012N-560-B-T5 maintains identical resistance value, power rating, package dimensions, thermal characteristics, and automotive certifications. The tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) represents an upgrade in precision and is electrically compatible.

Q: What is the difference between RG2012N-560-W-T1 and RG2012N-560-W-T5?

A: Both parts have identical electrical specifications (56 Ohms ±0.05%, 0.125W, 0805 package, ±10ppm/°C, -55°C to 155°C). The difference is in packaging format designation (T1 versus T5 tape specifications). Both are active production parts with full automotive compliance.

Q: Are all substitute parts AEC-Q200 qualified?

A: Yes. All substitute parts listed carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and anti-sulfur construction, matching the original component's reliability standards.

Q: Can a ±0.05% tolerance part replace a ±0.25% tolerance specification?

A: Yes. A tighter tolerance specification is a functional upgrade. A ±0.05% part will always fall within the ±0.25% tolerance band, ensuring compatibility with any circuit designed for the original tolerance.

Q: What is the mechanical compatibility of substitute parts?

A: All substitute parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W, 2.00mm x 1.25mm) and maximum seated height (0.020" / 0.50mm). PCB footprints and assembly processes are identical.

Q: Is the RG2012N-560-C-T5 still available?

A: The RG2012N-560-C-T5 is listed as obsolete. Active substitutes from the same manufacturer and series are recommended for new designs and replenishment orders.

Q: Do all parts meet ROHS3 compliance?

A: Yes. The main part and all substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.
