Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RMC1/8K16R2FTP is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 16.2 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Package: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Number of terminations: 2

All substitute parts listed meet these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in physical dimensions (length, width, height) and additional certifications (such as AEC-Q200 automotive qualification) do not disqualify substitution but represent enhanced or alternative feature sets.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RMC1/8K16R2FTP (Kamaya Inc.) - Primary Reference Active product status with established supply availability. Suitable for general-purpose applications where automotive qualification is not required.

ERJ-8ENF16R2V (Panasonic Electronic Components) Carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and ROHS3 compliance. Product status is "Not For New Designs," indicating this part is in mature phase. Use only for legacy design support or when existing supply contracts specify this manufacturer.

RC1206FR-0716R2L (YAGEO) Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and moisture-resistant feature set. Recommended for applications requiring enhanced moisture protection in standard industrial environments. Maintains full electrical and mechanical equivalence to the primary part.

RMCF1206FT16R2 (Stackpole Electronics Inc.) Active product status with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and ROHS3 compliance. Recommended for automotive applications, industrial equipment with stringent reliability requirements, or designs requiring automotive-grade component certification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERJ-8ENF16R2V replace RMC1/8K16R2FTP in new designs? A: ERJ-8ENF16R2V meets all electrical and mechanical parameters for direct substitution. However, its "Not For New Designs" status indicates Panasonic is phasing this part out. For new designs, RC1206FR-0716R2L or RMCF1206FT16R2 are preferred alternatives with Active status.

Q: What is the difference between automotive-qualified and standard versions? A: ERJ-8ENF16R2V and RMCF1206FT16R2 carry AEC-Q200 certification, indicating compliance with automotive reliability and testing standards. Standard versions (RMC1/8K16R2FTP, RC1206FR-0716R2L) meet general industrial specifications. Automotive qualification is required only for automotive applications.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts? A: Yes. RMC1/8K16R2FTP and RC1206FR-0716R2L measure 0.122" L x 0.063" W with 0.025" max height. ERJ-8ENF16R2V and RMCF1206FT16R2 measure 0.126" L x 0.063" W with 0.028" max height. All fit the 1206 package footprint; verify PCB layout clearance for height-sensitive applications.

Q: Which substitute offers the best moisture protection? A: RC1206FR-0716R2L explicitly features moisture-resistant construction. All parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity concerns for standard storage and handling.

Q: Can I use these parts interchangeably on the same PCB? A: All four parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable on standard 1206 footprints. Verify component placement clearance due to minor height variations. No design changes are required for substitution.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part? A: RMC1/8K16R2FTP: 730 pcs; ERJ-8ENF16R2V: 26,527 pcs; RC1206FR-0716R2L: 8,214 pcs; RMCF1206FT16R2: 9,946 pcs. Panasonic ERJ-8ENF16R2V offers highest availability despite "Not For New Designs" status.
