Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RG3216V-2002-B-T1 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 20 kOhms (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum
• Temperature coefficient: ±5ppm/°C
• Tolerance: ±0.1% or tighter (lower tolerance values are acceptable upgrades)

Mechanical Parameters:

• Package: 1206 (3216 Metric) form factor
• Physical dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) nominal
• Height seated: 0.020" to 0.026" maximum

Compliance Parameters:

• Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification
• RoHS3 compliance
• Operating temperature range: -55°C minimum to 125°C minimum upper limit

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories: direct equivalents (identical tolerance), upgrades (tighter tolerance), and cross-manufacturer alternatives (different manufacturers with equivalent specifications).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent (Same Tolerance): RG3216V-2002-B-T5 is the direct equivalent to the obsolete RG3216V-2002-B-T1. Both components share identical electrical specifications (20 kΩ ±0.1%), power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. The primary difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. bulk), with RG3216V-2002-B-T5 in active production status. This part is the primary replacement for direct substitution.

TNPU120620K0BZEN00 (Vishay Dale) provides an alternative direct equivalent with identical tolerance and electrical performance. This part operates to 125°C maximum, which is within the lower end of the original operating range. Selection between Susumu and Vishay Dale variants depends on supply chain and qualification requirements.

Upgrade Options (Tighter Tolerance): RG3216V-2002-P-T1 (±0.02% tolerance) and RG3216V-2002-W-T1 (±0.05% tolerance) are tolerance upgrades from the original ±0.1% specification. These components are suitable for applications requiring improved accuracy and are fully compatible with the original footprint and electrical requirements.

RNCF1206TKY20K0 (Stackpole Electronics Inc) offers the tightest tolerance at ±0.01% and extends the operating temperature range to 155°C, matching the original specification. This part is suitable for precision applications requiring superior tolerance performance.

All substitute parts maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, RoHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating. Selection should be based on application tolerance requirements, supply availability, and qualification status within the target system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RG3216V-2002-B-T5 directly replace the obsolete RG3216V-2002-B-T1?

A: Yes. RG3216V-2002-B-T5 is a direct equivalent with identical electrical specifications (20 kΩ ±0.1%), power rating (0.25W), temperature coefficient (±5ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The only difference is packaging format and active production status. No circuit redesign is required.

Q: What is the difference between the Susumu RG series and Vishay Dale TNPU series?

A: Both maintain identical electrical specifications for the 20 kΩ ±0.1% rating. The TNPU120620K0BZEN00 includes moisture-resistant coating and operates to 125°C maximum, compared to 155°C for the RG series. Selection depends on application temperature requirements and supplier qualification.

Q: Are tolerance upgrades (±0.05%, ±0.02%, ±0.01%) backward compatible?

A: Yes. Tighter tolerance specifications are backward compatible with applications designed for ±0.1% tolerance. The RG3216V-2002-P-T1 (±0.02%), RG3216V-2002-W-T1 (±0.05%), and RNCF1206TKY20K0 (±0.01%) can replace the original part in any application. Tighter tolerances provide improved accuracy without compromising functionality.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet automotive AEC-Q200 qualification?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, RoHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating, matching the original component's compliance profile.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between manufacturers?

A: Minor variations exist. The Stackpole RNCF1206TKY20K0 has slightly different dimensions (0.120" L x 0.061" W vs. 0.126" L x 0.063" W) and maximum seated height (0.026" vs. 0.020"), but remains within 1206 package specifications and is footprint-compatible. The Vishay Dale TNPU series also has a maximum seated height of 0.026". These variations do not affect PCB assembly compatibility.

Q: Which substitute part offers the best performance for precision applications?

A: RNCF1206TKY20K0 (Stackpole Electronics Inc) provides the tightest tolerance at ±0.01% and maintains the full -55°C ~ 155°C operating temperature range. This part is suitable for applications requiring superior accuracy and thermal performance.

Q: Can I mix different manufacturers in the same circuit?

A: Yes. All substitute parts meet identical electrical and compliance specifications. Mixing manufacturers within a single design is acceptable from an electrical standpoint. However, supply chain and qualification documentation should be reviewed for consistency with system-level requirements.
