RL0816S-2R7-G Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RL0816S-2R7-G is a 2.7 Ohm ±2% thin film chip resistor manufactured by Susumu in the 0603 (1608 Metric) package format. This component is designed for current sensing applications and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 125°C. The part maintains Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). The RL0816S-2R7-G is suitable for applications requiring standard tolerance current sense resistors in compact surface-mount form factors.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters are maintained while offering alternative tolerance specifications or improved availability. Substitution ensures design continuity and supply chain flexibility without compromising circuit performance within specified operating conditions.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RL0816S-2R7-G is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Equivalence Parameters:

• Resistance value: 2.7 Ohms
• Power rating: 0.2W (1/5W)
• Package format: 0603 (1608 Metric)
• Composition: Thin Film
• Application feature: Current Sense
• Temperature coefficient: 0 / +200ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 125°C
• Physical dimensions: 0.063" L x 0.031" W (1.60mm x 0.80mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.022" (0.55mm)
• Terminations: 2
• Compliance: RoHS3, REACH Unaffected
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Tolerance specification (±2% to ±1%)

The RL0816S-2R7-F qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains all mandatory equivalence parameters while offering improved tolerance performance at ±1%.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RL0816S-2R7-G and RL0816S-2R7-F are Active products manufactured by Susumu and maintain full compliance with RoHS3 and REACH requirements. Both components are rated for unlimited moisture sensitivity (MSL 1), eliminating moisture-related handling constraints.

The RL0816S-2R7-F offers tighter tolerance specification (±1% versus ±2%), which provides improved accuracy in current sensing applications where precision is critical. The substitute part maintains identical electrical performance characteristics, thermal behavior, and mechanical compatibility with the original specification.

Selection between these parts depends on application tolerance requirements. The RL0816S-2R7-G is suitable for applications tolerating ±2% resistance variation. The RL0816S-2R7-F is appropriate for designs requiring ±1% tolerance performance. Both parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within their respective tolerance specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RL0816S-2R7-F replace the RL0816S-2R7-G in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RL0816S-2R7-F is a direct mechanical and electrical substitute.
