Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RG3216V-1871-C-T5 is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

Mandatory Equivalence Parameters:

• Resistance value: 1.87 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric) (physical and electrical footprint compatibility)
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W) (thermal and current handling capacity)
• Composition: Thin Film (electrical performance characteristics)
• Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200 (reliability and qualification status)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (environmental performance)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Tolerance: May be tighter (lower tolerance value) than the original ±0.25%
• Product status: Active alternatives are preferred over obsolete status
• Packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR) is compatible with the original packaging

All substitute parts listed maintain identical resistance, package, power rating, composition, and automotive qualification. Tolerance specifications on substitute parts are equal to or tighter than the original specification, ensuring direct functional compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts (RG3216V-1871-B-T5, RG3216V-1871-W-T1, and RG3216V-1871-P-T1) are direct functional equivalents to the RG3216V-1871-C-T5. Each substitute maintains identical electrical performance parameters, mechanical compatibility, and automotive qualification status.

RG3216V-1871-B-T5 provides a tolerance upgrade to ±0.1% while maintaining all other specifications. This part is active and available in Tape & Reel packaging.

RG3216V-1871-W-T1 provides a tolerance upgrade to ±0.05%, offering improved precision for applications requiring tighter resistance control. This part is active and available in Tape & Reel packaging.

RG3216V-1871-P-T1 provides the highest tolerance specification at ±0.02%, suitable for precision circuit applications. This part is active and available in Tape & Reel packaging.

All substitute parts carry ROHS3 compliance, AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, anti-sulfur coating, and identical thermal and environmental operating ranges. Selection among the three substitutes depends on the tolerance requirement of the specific application circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG3216V-1871-B-T5, RG3216V-1871-W-T1, or RG3216V-1871-P-T1 be used as direct replacements for RG3216V-1871-C-T5?

A: Yes. All three substitute parts are direct functional replacements. They maintain identical resistance value (1.87 kOhms), package format (1206), power rating (0.25W), composition (thin film), and automotive qualification (AEC-Q200). The substitute parts feature tighter tolerance specifications, which are compatible with applications designed for the original ±0.25% tolerance.

Q: What is the difference between the three substitute parts?

A: The three substitutes differ only in tolerance specification. RG3216V-1871-B-T5 offers ±0.1% tolerance, RG3216V-1871-W-T1 offers ±0.05% tolerance, and RG3216V-1871-P-T1 offers ±0.02% tolerance. All other electrical and mechanical parameters are identical.

Q: Are the substitute parts available in the same packaging format?

A: The original RG3216V-1871-C-T5 was supplied in standard packaging. All three substitute parts are available in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is the standard automated assembly packaging for 1206 chip resistors and is compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet automotive qualification requirements?

A: Yes. All three substitute parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, anti-sulfur coating, and operate across the identical temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C) as the original part. All are ROHS3 compliant.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for my application?

A: Selection depends on the tolerance requirement of your circuit design. If the original ±0.25% tolerance is sufficient, RG3216V-1871-B-T5 (±0.1%) provides an economical upgrade. For applications requiring improved precision, RG3216V-1871-W-T1 (±0.05%) or RG3216V-1871-P-T1 (±0.02%) are appropriate selections.

Q: Are there any physical dimension differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: No. All parts share identical physical dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) with a maximum seated height of 0.020" (0.50mm). They are fully compatible with existing PCB layouts and assembly processes.
