Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RP164PJ334CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 330kΩ
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Number of resistor elements: 4
• Circuit configuration: Isolated
• Number of pins: 8
• Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to +155°C
• Package type: 1206 (3216 Metric), Convex, Long Side Terminals
• Physical dimensions: 0.126" L × 0.063" W (3.20mm × 1.60mm)
• Mounting type: Surface Mount
• Regulatory compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Power per element: May exceed the original 62.5mW specification
• Product status: Active status preferred for ongoing availability
• Packaging format: Tape & Reel acceptable for production environments
• Height tolerance: Minor variations within seated maximum specification

The substitute part RAVF164DJT330K meets all mandatory matching parameters and demonstrates enhanced power rating (100mW per element) with active product status.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: RAVF164DJT330K

The RAVF164DJT330K from Stackpole Electronics Inc is a direct functional equivalent to the RP164PJ334CS. All critical electrical and mechanical parameters align with the original specification. The substitute component demonstrates the following advantages:

• Active product status ensures ongoing availability and supply chain continuity
• Enhanced power rating per element (100mW versus 62.5mW) provides additional thermal margin
• Identical package geometry and pin configuration enable direct PCB-level substitution
• Full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH regulatory requirements
• Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification extends application scope

The increased power per element in the substitute part does not introduce incompatibility; it represents a performance enhancement suitable for the same circuit applications. No circuit redesign or PCB modification is required for implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RAVF164DJT330K be used as a direct replacement for RP164PJ334CS on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. The RAVF164DJT330K maintains identical package dimensions (1206 / 3216 Metric), pin count (8), pin spacing, and terminal configuration (convex, long-side). No PCB layout modifications are necessary.

Q: What is the significance of the higher power rating (100mW vs 62.5mW) in the substitute part?

A: The increased power per element rating in RAVF164DJT330K indicates enhanced thermal capability. This does not alter electrical performance in circuits designed for the original 62.5mW specification; it provides additional operational margin and thermal stability.

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

A: No. Both components are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. The substitute part carries additional Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, which does not conflict with existing applications.

Q: Why is the main part RP164PJ334CS classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolete status indicates the manufacturer has discontinued production. The RAVF164DJT330K substitute maintains active production status, ensuring long-term supply availability.

Q: Does packaging format (Tape & Reel for substitute) affect compatibility?

A: Packaging format refers to supply and handling only. Tape & Reel packaging is standard for production environments and does not affect component electrical or mechanical performance.

Q: Are the temperature coefficients identical between both parts?

A: Yes. Both components specify ±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient and operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C to +155°C.

Q: What parameters must remain identical for substitution to be valid?

A: Resistance value (330kΩ), tolerance (±5%), number of elements (4), circuit type (isolated), pin count (8), package type (1206 convex long-side), and operating temperature range (-55°C to +155°C) must all match exactly.
