Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RLC16K2R70FTP is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 2.7 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0603 (1608 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Automotive Compliance: AEC-Q200 (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Power Rating: Substitute parts may have equal or higher power ratings
• Temperature Coefficient: Substitute parts may have different temperature coefficients within acceptable engineering limits
• Manufacturer: Different manufacturers are acceptable provided all critical parameters match

The ERJ-3RQF2R7V from Panasonic Electronic Components meets all critical matching parameters and qualifies as a direct substitute despite having a lower power rating (0.1W vs. 0.25W) and a higher temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C vs. ±100ppm/°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Part: RLC16K2R70FTP

The RLC16K2R70FTP is the specified component and should be used when available. This part carries active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Current inventory of 718 pieces supports immediate procurement.

Substitute Part: ERJ-3RQF2R7V

The ERJ-3RQF2R7V from Panasonic Electronic Components is a qualified substitute when the primary part is unavailable. This part maintains identical electrical specifications (2.7 Ohms ±1%), identical package dimensions (0603), identical automotive compliance (AEC-Q200), and identical operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating.

The ERJ-3RQF2R7V has a lower power rating (0.1W vs. 0.25W) and higher temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C vs. ±100ppm/°C). These differences are acceptable in applications where the circuit design does not require the full 0.25W power dissipation capability or where the higher temperature coefficient does not impact circuit performance specifications. The substitute part has significantly higher inventory availability (22,827 pieces).

Both parts are suitable for automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 qualification and are compatible with standard 0603 package assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ERJ-3RQF2R7V replace the RLC16K2R70FTP in all applications?

A: The ERJ-3RQF2R7V is electrically and mechanically compatible with the RLC16K2R70FTP for applications where the circuit design does not require the full 0.25W power dissipation capability. The substitute part is rated for 0.1W. If the application requires power dissipation above 0.1W, the primary part must be used. Both parts meet AEC-Q200 automotive standards and operate across the identical temperature range.

Q: What is the difference in temperature coefficient between these parts?

A: The RLC16K2R70FTP has a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C, while the ERJ-3RQF2R7V has ±200ppm/°C. This means the substitute part exhibits twice the resistance change per degree Celsius. For precision analog circuits or applications with tight tolerance requirements across temperature ranges, this difference may be significant. For general-purpose applications, both coefficients are within acceptable automotive operating parameters.

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

A: Yes. Both the RLC16K2R70FTP and ERJ-3RQF2R7V are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging and are compatible with automated assembly equipment designed for 0603 (1608 Metric) components. Physical dimensions are identical: 0.063" L x 0.031" W (1.60mm x 0.80mm) with maximum seated height of 0.022" (0.55mm).

Q: Do both parts meet automotive qualification standards?

A: Yes. Both the RLC16K2R70FTP and ERJ-3RQF2R7V carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Both are ROHS3 compliant and have MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, making them suitable for automotive applications without additional environmental protection requirements.

Q: What is the resistance tolerance for both parts?

A: Both parts have ±1% tolerance on the 2.7 Ohm resistance value. This tolerance is identical and ensures equivalent circuit performance in applications requiring precision resistor values.

Q: Can I use the ERJ-3RQF2R7V in a high-power dissipation circuit?

A: No. The ERJ-3RQF2R7V is rated for 0.1W maximum power dissipation, while the RLC16K2R70FTP is rated for 0.25W. If your circuit requires power dissipation above 0.1W, the primary part (RLC16K2R70FTP) must be used. Using the substitute part in an over-power application will result in component failure.
