Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RNF12FTC95K3 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 95.3 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.5W / 1/2W (exact match required)
• Composition: Metal Film (exact match required)
• Package: Axial through-hole (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (minimum requirement)

The CMF5595K300FHEB from Vishay Dale meets all substitution criteria. Both parts share identical electrical specifications and axial package configuration. Differences in physical dimensions and operating temperature upper limit do not affect functional substitutability within the specified electrical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RNF12FTC95K3 and CMF5595K300FHEB are Active status components with ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected designation. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Packaging requirements: RNF12FTC95K3 is supplied in Tape & Reel format; CMF5595K300FHEB is supplied in Cut Tape format
• Physical dimensions: RNF12FTC95K3 measures 0.108" Dia x 0.344" L; CMF5595K300FHEB measures 0.090" Dia x 0.240" L
• Environmental specifications: CMF5595K300FHEB provides extended operating temperature to 175°C and includes moisture resistant features
• Inventory availability: Current stock levels differ between manufacturers

Both parts satisfy identical electrical requirements and are suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring 95.3 kOhms ±1% metal film resistors at 0.5W power rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CMF5595K300FHEB replace RNF12FTC95K3 in my circuit?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (95.3 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.5W), composition (metal film), and temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C). Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences?

A: RNF12FTC95K3 is 0.108" diameter x 0.344" length. CMF5595K300FHEB is 0.090" diameter x 0.240" length. The substitute is physically smaller. Verify PCB layout compatibility before substitution.

Q: Does the extended temperature range of CMF5595K300FHEB (-55°C to 175°C vs -55°C to 155°C) affect compatibility?

A: No. The extended upper temperature limit of the substitute part does not create incompatibility. If your application operates within -55°C to 155°C, both parts perform identically within that range.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous tape wound on reels for automated assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on tape segments cut to specific lengths. Selection depends on assembly equipment and production volume requirements.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RNF12FTC95K3 and CMF5595K300FHEB are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected.

Q: Does CMF5595K300FHEB have additional features?

A: CMF5595K300FHEB includes moisture resistant features in addition to flame retardant coating. This provides enhanced environmental protection but does not affect electrical substitutability for applications not requiring moisture resistance.
