Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RP164PJ200CS is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 20 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Number of resistors: 4
• Circuit type: Isolated
• Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric), Convex, Long Side Terminals
• Number of pins: 8
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Physical dimensions: 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Power per element: Substitute parts may exceed the 62.5mW specification, provided the higher power rating does not introduce thermal or reliability concerns in the application circuit
• Product status: Active status is preferred for long-term availability
• Packaging format: Tape & Reel (TR) is acceptable as an alternative to standard packaging

The RAVF164DJT20R0 from Stackpole Electronics Inc qualifies as a direct substitute based on full alignment of all mandatory parameters and an increased power per element rating of 100mW.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RAVF164DJT20R0 is a qualified substitute for the obsolete RP164PJ200CS based on the following engineering criteria:

Compliance and Certification: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment. The RAVF164DJT20R0 carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, providing additional reliability assurance for applications requiring automotive-grade components.

Product Availability: The transition from obsolete to active product status with the RAVF164DJT20R0 ensures long-term procurement viability and supply chain continuity.

Electrical and Mechanical Compatibility: All critical electrical parameters—resistance value, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range—are identical. Physical dimensions and package configuration are equivalent, enabling direct PCB footprint compatibility without layout modifications.

Power Rating Enhancement: The increased power per element rating (100mW versus 62.5mW) provides additional thermal margin and operational headroom, with no negative impact on circuit performance when the original design operates within the 62.5mW specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RAVF164DJT20R0 be used as a direct replacement for the RP164PJ200CS without PCB modifications?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical package dimensions (1206 / 3216 Metric), pin count (8), and terminal configuration (Convex, Long Side Terminals). No PCB layout changes are required.

Q: What is the significance of the higher power rating (100mW) in the RAVF164DJT20R0?

A: The increased power per element rating provides additional thermal capacity. If the original circuit design operates at or below 62.5mW per element, the substitute part operates with additional margin and does not introduce thermal concerns.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between the two parts?

A: No. Both parts deliver identical resistance (20 Ohms), tolerance (±5%), temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: What does the AEC-Q200 qualification on the RAVF164DJT20R0 indicate?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry qualification standard. This certification indicates the part meets automotive reliability and quality requirements. It is applicable for automotive applications but does not restrict use in non-automotive designs.

Q: Is the packaging format difference (Tape & Reel for the substitute) significant?

A: No. Tape & Reel is a standard packaging and handling format for surface mount components. It is compatible with automated assembly processes and does not affect component performance or PCB integration.

Q: Can both parts be used interchangeably in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RAVF164DJT20R0 is a direct functional and mechanical equivalent. Designs using the RP164PJ200CS can transition to the RAVF164DJT20R0 without circuit modifications or performance degradation.
