• Identical resistance value: 511 kOhms
• Matching tolerance: ±1%
• Equivalent power rating: 0.05W (1/20W)
• Identical package format: 0201 (0603 Metric)
• Matching composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
• RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating

All substitute parts listed maintain these core electrical and mechanical parameters, ensuring functional equivalence in circuit design applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, qualifying them for direct replacement in applications requiring the RMCF0201FT511K specifications. Selection among substitutes should be based on:

• Operating temperature requirements: The RMCF0201FT511K and CRCW0201511KFNED support -55°C to 155°C operation, while ERJ-1GNF5113C and RC0201FR-07511KL are rated to -55°C to 125°C. Applications requiring operation above 125°C necessitate the Stackpole or Vishay Dale options.
• Seated height tolerance: The RMCF0201FT511K has a maximum seated height of 0.011" (0.28mm), while substitute parts are specified at 0.010" (0.26mm). PCB layout constraints with minimal clearance may require consideration of this dimensional difference.
• Moisture resistance features: The RC0201FR-07511KL (YAGEO) includes moisture-resistant composition, providing enhanced protection in high-humidity environments.
• Inventory availability and supply chain considerations: Panasonic ERJ-1GNF5113C offers the highest inventory level at 74,045 pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW0201511KFNED replace RMCF0201FT511K directly? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (511 kOhms ±1%, 0.05W, ±200ppm/°C), package format (0201), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The maximum seated height differs by 0.001" (0.02mm), which is negligible for most PCB applications.

Q: What is the difference between ERJ-1GNF5113C and RMCF0201FT511K? A: Both parts are electrically equivalent with matching resistance, tolerance, power rating, and temperature coefficient. The primary difference is the maximum operating temperature: ERJ-1GNF5113C is rated to 125°C while RMCF0201FT511K extends to 155°C. For applications operating below 125°C, ERJ-1GNF5113C provides full compatibility.

Q: Is RC0201FR-07511KL suitable for high-humidity applications? A: Yes. RC0201FR-07511KL includes moisture-resistant thick film composition and maintains MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, making it suitable for high-humidity environments while maintaining electrical equivalence to RMCF0201FT511K.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts (CRCW0201511KFNED, ERJ-1GNF5113C, RC0201FR-07511KL) are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 rating, matching the compliance profile of RMCF0201FT511K.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in automated assembly? A: Yes. All parts share identical 0201 package format and tape & reel packaging, enabling direct substitution in automated pick-and-place assembly processes. Verify reel specifications with your assembly partner for optimal compatibility.
