Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RMC1/8K1690FTP is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Electrical Parameters: Resistance value (169 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), and temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) must be identical. Operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C) must be maintained or exceeded.

Mechanical Parameters: Package type (1206 / 3216 Metric) and number of terminations (2) must match exactly. Physical dimensions and height specifications must be compatible with PCB assembly equipment and design constraints.

Material & Composition: Thick film construction is required. Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) is maintained across all qualified substitutes.

Compliance & Certifications: REACH Unaffected status and ROHS3 compliance are preserved. Additional certifications such as AEC-Q200 automotive qualification are noted where applicable but do not disqualify substitution for non-automotive applications.

All substitute parts listed meet these criteria without exception.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Selection: RC1206FR-07169RL (YAGEO) is recommended as the first substitute option. This part maintains Active product status, carries ROHS3 compliance certification, and provides moisture-resistant thick film construction. Inventory availability (85,425 pcs) ensures supply continuity.

Secondary Selection: RMCF1206FT169R (Stackpole Electronics Inc) is qualified as an alternative. This component carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and Active product status. It is suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability. Inventory availability (37,188 pcs) supports production requirements.

Tertiary Selection: ERJ-8ENF1690V (Panasonic Electronic Components) is electrically and mechanically equivalent but carries "Not For New Designs" product status. This part includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Use is restricted to legacy design support or replacement applications where existing designs specify this component. Inventory availability (60,781 pcs) is substantial.

All three substitute parts are electrically and mechanically interchangeable with the RMC1/8K1690FTP within the specified parameter tolerances.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERJ-8ENF1690V be used in new designs? A: ERJ-8ENF1690V carries "Not For New Designs" product status. For new designs, select RC1206FR-07169RL or RMCF1206FT169R, both with Active status.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between substitute parts? A: All parts use 1206 (3216 Metric) package. Dimensional variations exist: RMC1/8K1690FTP and RC1206FR-07169RL measure 0.122" L x 0.063" W (3.10mm x 1.60mm); ERJ-8ENF1690V and RMCF1206FT169R measure 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm). Height differences are 0.025" (0.65mm) versus 0.028" (0.70mm). These variations are within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB assembly compatibility.

Q: What is the difference between standard and automotive-qualified substitutes? A: RMCF1206FT169R and ERJ-8ENF1690V carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. RC1206FR-07169RL does not specify automotive qualification. For non-automotive applications, all three substitutes are functionally equivalent. For automotive applications, select RMCF1206FT169R (Active status) or ERJ-8ENF1690V (legacy support only).

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS compliant? A: RC1206FR-07169RL, ERJ-8ENF1690V, and RMCF1206FT169R are ROHS3 compliant. RMC1/8K1690FTP RoHS status is not specified in available documentation.

Q: What is Moisture Sensitivity Level 1? A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates the component has unlimited shelf life under normal storage conditions and requires no special moisture control during handling or assembly.
