Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RAVF164DJT300K is a qualified substitute for the RP164PJ304CS based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Compatibility: Both components share identical resistance value (300k Ohm), tolerance (±5%), temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The RAVF164DJT300K provides enhanced power dissipation capability (100mW per element versus 62.5mW), which represents a performance improvement without introducing compatibility issues.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package dimensions, pin configuration, and mounting type are identical. Both components utilize 1206 (3216 Metric) convex, long side terminal configuration with matching physical footprints (0.126" L x 0.063" W). Height specifications are equivalent within manufacturing tolerance (0.61mm versus 0.60mm).

Regulatory and Compliance Status: Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying environmental and regulatory requirements. The RAVF164DJT300K carries active product status, ensuring long-term supply chain availability compared to the obsolete RP164PJ304CS.

Application Suitability: The Stackpole component includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, extending application scope beyond the original Samsung component specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RAVF164DJT300K be used as a direct replacement for the RP164PJ304CS in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RAVF164DJT300K is electrically and mechanically compatible with the RP164PJ304CS. Identical resistance value, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and package configuration ensure direct substitution without circuit redesign. The enhanced power rating (100mW versus 62.5mW per element) provides additional thermal margin.

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

A: The primary differences are manufacturer (Samsung versus Stackpole), product status (obsolete versus active), power per element rating (62.5mW versus 100mW), and packaging format (standard versus Tape & Reel). Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any height or footprint differences that would affect PCB layout?

A: No. Both components share identical footprints (0.126" L x 0.063" W / 3.20mm x 1.60mm) and equivalent maximum seated heights (0.61mm versus 0.60mm). PCB layout and assembly processes require no modification.

Q: Does the RAVF164DJT300K meet the same environmental and regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Moisture sensitivity level is identical (MSL 1 - Unlimited). The RAVF164DJT300K additionally carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

Q: Why is the RAVF164DJT300K rated for higher power dissipation?

A: The higher power rating (100mW versus 62.5mW per element) reflects Stackpole's component design and manufacturing specifications. This represents a performance enhancement that does not compromise compatibility or introduce design constraints.

Q: Is the Tape & Reel packaging format compatible with standard assembly equipment?

A: Yes. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for automated surface mount assembly processes. This format is compatible with conventional pick-and-place equipment and reflow soldering procedures.

Q: What is the significance of the AEC-Q200 qualification on the RAVF164DJT300K?

A: AEC-Q200 qualification indicates the component meets automotive industry reliability and quality standards. This certification extends application scope to automotive environments, though it does not restrict use in non-automotive applications.
