Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RP164PJ624CS is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 620k Ohm
• 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
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variation:

• Power per element: Substitute parts may exceed the original specification (62.5mW minimum requirement). The RAVF164DJT620K provides 100mW per element, which is acceptable as it represents increased power handling capability without reducing performance margins.

The RAVF164DJT620K from Stackpole Electronics Inc meets all mandatory parameters and exceeds power per element specifications, qualifying it as a direct substitute.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RAVF164DJT620K is the qualified substitute for the obsolete RP164PJ624CS. Selection rationale is based on the following factors:

Product Status: The RP164PJ624CS is classified as obsolete, making the RAVF164DJT620K the appropriate alternative as an active product with ongoing manufacturer support and availability.

Compliance and Certifications: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. The RAVF164DJT620K carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, providing additional reliability assurance for applications requiring automotive-grade components.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All critical electrical parameters—resistance value, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range—are identical. Physical dimensions and pin configuration are equivalent, ensuring direct board-level compatibility without layout modifications.

Power Handling Enhancement: The RAVF164DJT620K provides 100mW per element compared to the original 62.5mW specification. This increased power rating enhances thermal margin and component reliability without introducing any functional or compatibility concerns.

Packaging and Handling: Both parts utilize identical 1206 (3216 Metric) surface mount packages with convex, long side terminals. Moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited) classification ensures equivalent handling and storage requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RAVF164DJT620K be used as a direct replacement for the RP164PJ624CS without circuit modifications?

A: Yes. The RAVF164DJT620K is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the RP164PJ624CS. All critical parameters—resistance value, tolerance, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and pin configuration—are identical. No circuit modifications are required.

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 the RAVF164DJT620K represents enhanced thermal capability. This provides additional design margin and does not affect circuit operation. The substitute part can safely handle the same or greater power dissipation as the original component.

Q: Are there any differences in package dimensions between these two parts?

A: No. Both parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) surface mount package with convex, long side terminals. Physical dimensions (0.126" L x 0.063" W / 3.20mm x 1.60mm) and maximum seated height (0.024" / 0.60-0.61mm) are equivalent, ensuring identical PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Does the RAVF164DJT620K meet the same environmental and compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The RAVF164DJT620K additionally carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, meeting or exceeding the compliance profile of the original part.

Q: What is the difference between the RP series and RAVF series designations?

A: The series designation identifies the manufacturer and product line. RP series components are from Samsung Electro-Mechanics, while RAVF series components are from Stackpole Electronics Inc. Both series contain equivalent resistor array products with identical electrical and mechanical specifications for this application.

Q: Is the RAVF164DJT620K available in the same packaging format (Tape & Reel)?

A: The RAVF164DJT620K is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, which is standard for high-volume surface mount assembly operations. This packaging format is compatible with automated pick-and-place equipment used in modern PCB manufacturing.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in automotive applications?

A: The RAVF164DJT620K carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for automotive applications. The original RP164PJ624CS does not specify automotive qualification. For automotive designs, the RAVF164DJT620K is the appropriate choice.
