Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RP164PJ1R6CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 1.6 Ohm
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Number of resistors: 4
• Circuit type: Isolated
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric), Convex, Long Side Terminals
• Number of pins: 8
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• Mounting type: Surface Mount

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Power per element: Substitute must equal or exceed 62.5mW
• Temperature coefficient: Substitute must equal or be superior (lower absolute value)
• Product status: Active products are preferred for obsolete components

The RAVF164DJT1R60 from Stackpole Electronics Inc meets all mandatory matching criteria and provides enhanced specifications in power rating (100mW vs. 62.5mW) and temperature coefficient stability (±200ppm/°C vs. ±300ppm/°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RAVF164DJT1R60 is a direct functional substitute for the obsolete RP164PJ1R6CS. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting environmental regulatory requirements. The Stackpole component carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, indicating enhanced reliability screening and process controls.

The substitute part provides superior performance characteristics: increased power dissipation capability (100mW vs. 62.5mW per element) and improved temperature stability (±200ppm/°C vs. ±300ppm/°C). These enhancements ensure the substitute operates within or exceeds the original design margins across the full operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C.

Mechanical compatibility is confirmed through identical package dimensions, pin count, and mounting configuration. Both components utilize identical 1206 (3216 Metric) convex long-side terminal packaging suitable for standard surface mount assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RAVF164DJT1R60 be used as a direct replacement for the RP164PJ1R6CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RAVF164DJT1R60 meets all electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct substitution. Identical resistance value, tolerance, package configuration, and pin count ensure compatibility with existing PCB layouts and circuit designs without modification.

Q: What are the key differences between these two components?

A: The primary differences are product status and performance enhancements. The RP164PJ1R6CS is obsolete, while the RAVF164DJT1R60 is active. The substitute provides higher power per element (100mW vs. 62.5mW) and superior temperature coefficient stability (±200ppm/°C vs. ±300ppm/°C). Both maintain identical electrical specifications for resistance, tolerance, and operating temperature range.

Q: Are there any packaging or assembly considerations when switching to the RAVF164DJT1R60?

A: No. Both components share identical physical dimensions (0.126" L x 0.063" W / 3.20mm x 1.60mm), maximum seated height (0.024" / 0.60-0.61mm), and 1206 (3216 Metric) convex long-side terminal configuration. Standard surface mount assembly equipment and processes are compatible with both parts.

Q: Does the RAVF164DJT1R60 meet the same compliance standards as the original part?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The RAVF164DJT1R60 additionally carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, indicating compliance with automotive reliability and quality standards.

Q: What is the significance of the improved temperature coefficient in the substitute part?

A: The RAVF164DJT1R60 exhibits ±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient compared to ±300ppm/°C in the original part. This represents superior resistance stability across temperature variations, resulting in tighter tolerance maintenance throughout the -55°C to 155°C operating range. This enhancement reduces circuit performance drift in temperature-sensitive applications.

Q: Is the increased power rating of the RAVF164DJT1R60 a concern for thermal management?

A: No. The increased power per element rating (100mW vs. 62.5mW) represents enhanced capability, not increased operating power. The substitute component can safely dissipate higher power levels if required by the circuit, providing additional design margin without introducing thermal management complications for applications operating within the original 62.5mW specification.
