Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RMC1/8K3161FTP is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 3.16 kOhms
• 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)

All substitute parts listed meet these electrical and mechanical specifications. Variations in physical dimensions (length, width, height) within the 1206 package specification, product status (Active vs. Not For New Designs), and optional certifications (AEC-Q200, RoHS3, moisture resistance features) do not affect functional substitutability but may influence selection based on application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Active Product Status Applications: RC1206FR-073K16L (YAGEO) and RMCF1206FT3K16 (Stackpole) are both classified as Active products and are suitable for new designs. RC1206FR-073K16L offers moisture-resistant construction. RMCF1206FT3K16 includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

For Automotive Applications: RMCF1206FT3K16 (Stackpole) and ERJ-8ENF3161V (Panasonic) both carry AEC-Q200 ratings. RMCF1206FT3K16 maintains Active status, while ERJ-8ENF3161V is marked Not For New Designs.

For RoHS3 Compliance: RC1206FR-073K16L, ERJ-8ENF3161V, and RMCF1206FT3K16 all meet ROHS3 compliance requirements.

For General-Purpose Substitution: All four parts are electrically and mechanically equivalent. Selection should prioritize Active product status and applicable certifications for the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERJ-8ENF3161V replace RMC1/8K3161FTP in new designs? A: ERJ-8ENF3161V is electrically and mechanically equivalent but carries a "Not For New Designs" status. For new designs, use RC1206FR-073K16L or RMCF1206FT3K16 instead.

Q: What is the difference between the physical dimensions of these parts? A: RMC1/8K3161FTP and RC1206FR-073K16L share identical dimensions (0.122" L x 0.063" W, 3.10mm x 1.60mm). ERJ-8ENF3161V and RMCF1206FT3K16 are slightly larger (0.126" L x 0.063" W, 3.20mm x 1.60mm). All fit within 1206 package specification and are mechanically compatible.

Q: Are these parts suitable for automotive applications? A: RMCF1206FT3K16 and ERJ-8ENF3161V carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. RMC1/8K3161FTP and RC1206FR-073K16L do not specify automotive ratings.

Q: What does MSL 1 (Unlimited) mean? A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited shelf life without moisture baking requirements. All listed parts share this rating.

Q: Which substitute offers the best long-term availability? A: RC1206FR-073K16L (YAGEO) and RMCF1206FT3K16 (Stackpole) both maintain Active product status, indicating ongoing manufacturing and support.

Q: Are all these parts RoHS3 compliant? A: RC1206FR-073K16L, ERJ-8ENF3161V, and RMCF1206FT3K16 are ROHS3 compliant. RMC1/8K3161FTP does not specify RoHS status in the provided data.
