RMCF2010FT787K Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RMCF2010FT787K is a 787 kOhms ±1% 0.75W chip resistor in 2010 (5025 Metric) package manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc. This thick film resistor meets automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and operates across -55°C to 155°C. The part is currently in active production status. Substitute parts are necessary when primary inventory is unavailable, when design requirements permit alternative manufacturers, or when supply chain optimization is required while maintaining equivalent electrical and mechanical performance.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RMCF2010FT787K is permissible with parts meeting all of the following criteria:

• Resistance value: 787 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.75W (3/4W)
• Package: 2010 (5025 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• Termination count: 2

The ERJ-12SF7873U from Panasonic Electronic Components satisfies all substitution criteria. Substitution is valid regardless of manufacturer, provided all electrical and mechanical parameters remain within specified tolerances and all certifications are maintained.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RMCF2010FT787K is the preferred selection for new designs due to its active production status. The ERJ-12SF7873U is electrically and mechanically equivalent but carries a "Not For New Designs" status, making it suitable only for replacement, repair, or legacy system applications where the original part specification must be maintained.

Both parts satisfy identical electrical performance requirements, dimensional constraints, and automotive compliance standards. Selection between these parts should be based on design phase (new vs. legacy), inventory availability, and supply chain considerations rather than technical performance differences.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERJ-12SF7873U be used as a direct replacement for RMCF2010FT787K in new designs?

A: No. While ERJ-12SF7873U is electrically and mechanically equivalent, its "Not For New Designs" status indicates it should not be selected for new product development. The RMCF2010FT787K is the appropriate choice for new designs.

Q: Are there any dimensional differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical dimensions: 0.197" L x 0.098" W (5.00mm x 2.50mm) with maximum seated height of 0.028" (0.70mm). They are footprint-compatible on PCB layouts.

Q: Do both parts meet automotive qualification requirements?

A: Yes. Both RMCF2010FT787K and ERJ-12SF7873U carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and operate across -55°C to 155°C with ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on ERJ-12SF7873U?

A: This status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued or is phasing out this part for new applications. It remains available for replacement and repair purposes but should not be specified in new product designs.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RMCF2010FT787K and ERJ-12SF7873U are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.
