Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts listed are active products with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Selection among these equivalents may be based on:

• Packaging format: CRCW0805137KFKEA and RC0805FR-07137KL are supplied in Tape & Reel; ERJ-6ENF1373V is supplied in Cut Tape & Digi-Reel
• Automotive qualification: CRCW0805137KFKEA and ERJ-6ENF1373V carry AEC-Q200 ratings for automotive applications
• Physical height constraints: CRCW0805137KFKEA has the lowest seated height at 0.020" (0.50mm); ERJ-6ENF1373V has the highest at 0.028" (0.70mm)
• Feature set: RMCS0805FT137K and RC0805FR-07137KL feature anti-sulfur and moisture-resistant properties respectively; CRCW0805137KFKEA and ERJ-6ENF1373V are automotive-qualified

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW0805137KFKEA replace RMCS0805FT137K in all applications?

A: Yes, for standard applications. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (137 kOhms ±1%, 0.125W, ±100ppm/°C, -55°C ~ 155°C). CRCW0805137KFKEA includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which is an additional feature. Physical height difference is 0.004" (0.10mm), which is negligible for most PCB layouts.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats offered?

A: RMCS0805FT137K, CRCW0805137KFKEA, and RC0805FR-07137KL are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. ERJ-6ENF1373V is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel format. Tape & Reel is standard for automated assembly; Cut Tape is suitable for lower-volume or manual assembly operations.

Q: Are there any height restrictions when substituting?

A: Height variations range from 0.020" to 0.028" (0.50mm to 0.70mm). For applications with tight vertical clearance constraints, CRCW0805137KFKEA (0.020" max) is the most compact option. RMCS0805FT137K and RC0805FR-07137KL are equivalent at 0.024" (0.60mm).

Q: Which substitute is recommended for automotive applications?

A: Both CRCW0805137KFKEA and ERJ-6ENF1373V carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. CRCW0805137KFKEA offers lower seated height; ERJ-6ENF1373V is available in Cut Tape format for flexible procurement.

Q: Do all substitutes meet RoHS and MSL requirements?

A: Yes. All listed parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), matching the original RMCS0805FT137K specification.
