Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RP164PJ360CS is determined by strict alignment of the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

Resistance value: 36 Ohm
Tolerance: ±5%
Number of resistors: 4
Circuit type: Isolated
Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
Package type: 1206 (3216 Metric), Convex, Long Side Terminals

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RAVF164DJT36R0 is a qualified substitute for the obsolete RP164PJ360CS based on the following engineering criteria:

Electrical Equivalence: All critical electrical parameters match exactly: 36 Ohm resistance, ±5% tolerance, ±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -55°C to 155°C operating range. The substitute's 100mW power per element exceeds the original 62.5mW specification, providing additional thermal margin without introducing incompatibility.

Physical Compatibility: Both components share identical package dimensions (1206/3216 Metric), pin count (8), terminal configuration (Convex, Long Side Terminals), and mounting type (Surface Mount). PCB layout and assembly processes require no modification.

Compliance Status: Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The substitute carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, indicating enhanced reliability screening and process controls.

Product Availability: The substitute is in active production status with 8508 pieces in stock, ensuring long-term procurement continuity compared to the obsolete original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RAVF164DJT36R0 be used as a direct replacement for the RP164PJ360CS without PCB modifications?

A: Yes. Both components use identical 1206 (3216 Metric) packages with 8 pins in convex, long-side terminal configuration. No PCB layout changes are required.

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

A: The substitute's higher power per element rating indicates greater thermal capacity. This provides additional design margin and does not create incompatibility. The substitute will operate safely in applications designed for the original 62.5mW specification.

Q: Are there any electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Resistance value, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range are identical. Both parts are isolated 4-resistor networks with matching electrical characteristics.

Q: Why does the substitute have AEC-Q200 qualification when the original does not?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry qualification standard. The substitute's automotive qualification indicates it has undergone additional reliability testing and process validation. This does not affect compatibility in non-automotive applications.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats (bulk vs. Tape & Reel)?

A: The original RP164PJ360CS is supplied in bulk packaging. The substitute RAVF164DJT36R0 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for automated assembly. Both formats contain identical components; packaging format affects only handling and assembly processes.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RP164PJ360CS and RAVF164DJT36R0 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Can the substitute be used in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. The substitute maintains the same operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C) and temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C) as the original, ensuring equivalent performance across the full temperature spectrum.
