Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RG2012N-683-W-T5 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 68 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±0.05%
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±10ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C

Mechanical Parameters:

• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W (2.00mm x 1.25mm)
• Number of terminations: 2

Compliance & Ratings:

• Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200
• RoHS status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• Composition: Thin Film

All identified substitute parts meet these criteria and are therefore electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the main part number.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RG2012N-683-W-T1 (Susumu): This part is a direct equivalent to the RG2012N-683-W-T5, differing only in tape reel configuration (T1 versus T5 designation). Both are manufactured by Susumu, share identical electrical specifications, and carry the same AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Selection between these two Susumu variants is based on packaging reel requirements and inventory availability. The RG2012N-683-W-T1 currently maintains higher inventory levels (2334 pcs) compared to the main part number.

ERA-6ARW683V (Panasonic Electronic Components): This Panasonic part meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria with identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. The component carries equivalent AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and ROHS3 compliance. The seated height specification differs by 0.004" (0.10mm maximum), which remains within acceptable PCB assembly tolerances for 0805 package components. The ERA-6ARW683V is available in significantly higher inventory (20582 pcs), supporting supply chain resilience. Selection of this cross-manufacturer substitute is appropriate when Susumu parts are unavailable or when procurement consolidation with Panasonic suppliers is required.

All three parts are actively produced and suitable for new design implementations and production applications requiring 68 kOhms ±0.05% thin film resistors in automotive-grade 0805 packages.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG2012N-683-W-T1 be used as a direct replacement for RG2012N-683-W-T5?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Susumu with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The designations T1 and T5 refer to different tape reel configurations. Electrical performance, package dimensions, and all performance ratings are equivalent.

Q: What is the difference between the Susumu RG2012N-683-W-T5 and the Panasonic ERA-6ARW683V?

A: The parts are electrically equivalent with identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. Both carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The only measurable difference is the maximum seated height: Susumu specifies 0.020" (0.50mm) while Panasonic specifies 0.024" (0.60mm). This 0.004" (0.10mm) difference is within standard PCB assembly tolerances for 0805 components and does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The RG2012N-683-W-T5, RG2012N-683-W-T1, and ERA-6ARW683V are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Can these parts be used in automotive applications?

A: Yes. All three parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and are rated for the -55°C ~ 155°C operating temperature range required for automotive environments.

Q: What packaging format is used for these parts?

A: All substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly processes.

Q: Are there any height clearance concerns when substituting ERA-6ARW683V for RG2012N-683-W-T5?

A: The ERA-6ARW683V has a maximum seated height of 0.024" (0.60mm) compared to 0.020" (0.50mm) for the Susumu part. This 0.004" (0.10mm) difference is within standard PCB design tolerances for 0805 package components and does not create clearance issues in typical circuit board layouts.

Q: What is the temperature coefficient specification for these resistors?

A: All three parts specify ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable resistance values across the -55°C ~ 155°C operating temperature range.
