Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RP164PJ361CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 360 Ohm
• Tolerance: ±5%
• Number of resistor elements: 4
• Circuit configuration: Isolated
• Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• Package type: 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:

• Power per element may exceed the original specification (62.5mW minimum requirement)
• Product status may differ (active status preferred for ongoing availability)
• Packaging format may vary (Tape & Reel acceptable for surface mount components)

The RAVF164DJT360R from Stackpole Electronics Inc meets all mandatory parameters and exceeds power rating specifications, qualifying as a direct functional substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RAVF164DJT360R Selection Basis:

The RAVF164DJT360R qualifies as a direct functional substitute based on complete parameter equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitute part maintains identical resistance value, tolerance, circuit configuration, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. Physical package dimensions and pin configuration are identical, ensuring PCB layout and assembly compatibility without design modification.

The substitute part demonstrates superior product status classification (Active versus Obsolete), ensuring long-term procurement availability and supply chain continuity. The RAVF164DJT360R incorporates Automotive grade qualification and AEC-Q200 certification, providing enhanced reliability documentation suitable for applications requiring automotive-level component traceability.

Power rating elevation from 62.5mW to 100mW in the substitute part represents a design margin improvement with no negative impact on circuit performance. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical moisture sensitivity levels, confirming environmental and regulatory equivalence.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RAVF164DJT360R be used as a direct replacement for RP164PJ361CS without PCB modification?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical package type (1206 Convex, Long Side Terminals), physical dimensions (0.126" L x 0.063" W), pin count (8), and pin configuration. No PCB layout changes are required for substitution.

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

A: The substitute part's 100mW power rating per element exceeds the original specification of 62.5mW. This provides additional thermal margin and does not create compatibility issues. The substitute part will operate within the same electrical parameters as the original part in all standard applications.

Q: Why is the RP164PJ361CS classified as obsolete?

A: Product status reflects manufacturer discontinuation. The RP164PJ361CS is no longer in active production. The RAVF164DJT360R maintains active production status, ensuring continued availability for new designs and replacement procurement.

Q: Does the Automotive grade designation of RAVF164DJT360R affect its use in non-automotive applications?

A: No. Automotive grade and AEC-Q200 certification represent enhanced qualification standards. These certifications are compatible with all application categories and do not restrict use in non-automotive circuits.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences between the two parts?

A: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, identical moisture sensitivity levels (MSL 1), and REACH unaffected status. No regulatory or compliance barriers exist for substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the identical temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C) across both parts?

A: Temperature coefficient equivalence ensures identical resistance drift characteristics across the operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). Circuit performance and tolerance stack-up calculations remain unchanged during substitution.
