RP164PJ000CS Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RP164PJ000CS is a 4-resistor isolated network array manufactured by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, configured as zero-ohm jumpers in a 1206 (3216 Metric) surface mount package. This component functions as an electrical interconnect element with 62.5mW power per element and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The product is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for ongoing design support and procurement continuity.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RP164PJ000CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

• Resistance value: 0.0 Ohm (Jumper configuration)
• Number of resistor elements: 4
• Circuit topology: Isolated network
• Pin count: 8
• Package designation: 1206 (3216 Metric) with convex, long side terminals
• Mounting technology: Surface mount

Acceptable Parameter Variations:

• Power per element: Substitute must equal or exceed 62.5mW
• Operating temperature range: Substitute must encompass or extend the -55°C to 155°C range
• Temperature coefficient: Not specified for main part; substitute values are permissible
• Product status: Active or obsolete status does not affect electrical equivalence

The substitute part 742X083000XP (CTS Resistor Products) satisfies all mandatory matching criteria and demonstrates acceptable variations in power rating (63mW) and temperature coefficient specification (±200ppm/°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 742X083000XP from CTS Resistor Products is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the RP164PJ000CS for applications operating within the -55°C to 125°C temperature range. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification, indicating equivalent environmental handling requirements.

The CTS substitute provides a higher power rating per element (63mW versus 62.5mW), which presents no compatibility constraint. The maximum seated height differential (0.028" versus 0.024") is within standard PCB assembly tolerances for 1206 package components.

Selection of the 742X083000XP is appropriate for designs where the upper operating temperature limit of 125°C satisfies system requirements. For applications requiring operation above 125°C, alternative substitutes must be evaluated against the full -55°C to 155°C specification of the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 742X083000XP directly replace the RP164PJ000CS in existing designs?

A: Yes, for applications operating within -55°C to 125°C. The substitute maintains identical electrical characteristics (0.0 Ohm, 4-element isolated network), pin configuration (8-pin), and package footprint (1206 with convex long side terminals). PCB layout and assembly processes require no modification.

Q: What is the significance of the 0.004" (0.10mm) height difference between the two parts?

A: The height differential (0.024" to 0.028") falls within standard PCB assembly tolerances for surface mount components. This variation does not affect solder joint formation, component placement accuracy, or board-level clearance in standard designs.

Q: Why does the CTS substitute specify a narrower operating temperature range?

A: The 742X083000XP operates to 125°C maximum, compared to 155°C for the Samsung part. Applications requiring sustained operation above 125°C must verify that the substitute meets thermal requirements. For designs operating within -55°C to 125°C, this specification difference is not a limiting factor.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the main part and substitute?

A: The RP164PJ000CS is supplied in standard packaging, while the 742X083000XP is available in Tape & Reel (TR) format. Both components use identical 1206 package geometry and convex long side terminal configuration. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for high-volume surface mount assembly and does not affect component performance.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both the RP164PJ000CS and 742X083000XP are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified under ECCN EAR99. Both carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, indicating equivalent environmental handling and storage requirements.
