Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RG2012V-361-C-T5 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Equivalence Parameters:

• Resistance value: 360 Ohms (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Composition: Thin Film
• Features: Anti-Sulfur, Automotive AEC-Q200
• Temperature coefficient: ±5ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• RoHS and REACH compliance status

Substitution Variance Parameter:

• Tolerance: Substitute parts with equal or tighter (lower) tolerance values are functionally equivalent. The RG2012V-361-C-T5 specifies ±0.25% tolerance. Substitute parts with ±0.1%, ±0.05%, or ±0.02% tolerance meet or exceed this specification and are direct substitutes.

All substitute parts listed maintain identical mechanical dimensions, electrical ratings, and automotive qualification standards. Tolerance improvements represent enhanced precision capability without degradation of any specified parameter.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts are direct functional equivalents to the RG2012V-361-C-T5 and are suitable for replacement in existing designs. Selection among substitute options is based on the following criteria:

Product Status Consideration: All substitute parts carry active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. The main part RG2012V-361-C-T5 is obsolete and should be transitioned to an active equivalent.

Tolerance Selection:

• RG2012V-361-B-T5 (±0.1% tolerance): Provides improved precision over the original ±0.25% specification while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical characteristics.
• RG2012V-361-W-T1 and RG2012V-361-W-T5 (±0.05% tolerance): Offer enhanced precision suitable for applications requiring tighter resistance control.
• RG2012V-361-P-T1 (±0.02% tolerance): Delivers the highest precision available in this series for applications demanding maximum accuracy.

Compliance and Certification: All substitute parts maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, ROHS3 compliance, and REACH unaffected status, ensuring compatibility with automotive and high-reliability application requirements.

Packaging Consideration: The main part RG2012V-361-C-T5 specifies packaging as "-" (unspecified). All substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is the standard packaging for SMD resistor distribution and automated assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG2012V-361-B-T5, RG2012V-361-W-T1, RG2012V-361-W-T5, and RG2012V-361-P-T1 be used interchangeably with RG2012V-361-C-T5?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical resistance value (360 Ohms), power rating (0.125W), package type (0805), composition (thin film), and automotive qualification (AEC-Q200). The substitute parts feature equal or tighter tolerance specifications, which represents an improvement over the original part's ±0.25% tolerance.

Q: What is the difference between the substitute parts?

A: The substitute parts differ only in tolerance specification. RG2012V-361-B-T5 offers ±0.1% tolerance, RG2012V-361-W-T1 and RG2012V-361-W-T5 offer ±0.05% tolerance, and RG2012V-361-P-T1 offers ±0.02% tolerance. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical.

Q: Why are there multiple substitute parts with the same tolerance?

A: RG2012V-361-W-T1 and RG2012V-361-W-T5 both specify ±0.05% tolerance but differ in tape configuration (T1 versus T5 designation). Both are functionally equivalent for circuit performance.

Q: Is the packaging difference significant?

A: The main part specifies packaging as "-" (unspecified), while all substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Tape & Reel is the standard packaging for SMD component distribution and is compatible with automated assembly equipment. This represents a practical improvement for manufacturing processes.

Q: Are all substitute parts AEC-Q200 qualified?

A: Yes. All substitute parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, identical to the original part. This certification ensures reliability for automotive and high-reliability applications.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: All parts, including the main part and all substitutes, carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints for storage and handling.

Q: Can I use a substitute part with tighter tolerance in a design that specified the original ±0.25% tolerance?

A: Yes. Tighter tolerance specifications represent enhanced precision capability. A part with ±0.1%, ±0.05%, or ±0.02% tolerance will meet or exceed any circuit requirement specified for ±0.25% tolerance.

Q: Are these parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All parts listed are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component use.
