Engineering Selection Recommendations

For general-purpose applications with no specific qualification requirements: CRCW1206200KFKEAC (Vishay Dale) is a direct substitute with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. This part maintains active product status and offers the highest inventory availability at 39079 units.

For automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 qualification: RMCF1206FG200K (Stackpole Electronics Inc) or CRCW1206200KFKEB (Vishay Dale) are qualified substitutes. RMCF1206FG200K is recommended due to active product status and substantial inventory (20763 units). CRCW1206200KFKEB is discontinued at DiGi Electronics despite high inventory levels.

For applications requiring enhanced power dissipation with automotive qualification: ESR18EZPF2003 (Rohm Semiconductor) provides 0.5W power rating with AEC-Q200 qualification and pulse withstanding capability. This part is suitable for circuits requiring higher transient energy absorption while maintaining the 1206 package footprint.

For high-voltage circuit applications: RCV1206200KFKEA (Vishay Dale) is specified with high-voltage characteristics and maintains all core electrical parameters. This part is active with 2828 units in inventory.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1), and identical operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CRCW1206200KFKEB be used as a direct replacement for RVC1206FT200K?

A: CRCW1206200KFKEB meets all electrical and mechanical specifications for direct substitution. However, this part is discontinued at DiGi Electronics. For new designs, CRCW1206200KFKEAC is recommended as an active alternative from the same manufacturer.

Q: What is the difference between RVC1206FT200K and RMCF1206FG200K?

A: Both parts share identical electrical specifications (200 kOhms ±1%, 0.25W, ±100ppm/°C). RMCF1206FG200K includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, making it suitable for automotive applications where this certification is required. Both are manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc.

Q: Can ESR18EZPF2003 be used in place of RVC1206FT200K?

A: ESR18EZPF2003 is electrically compatible with identical resistance, tolerance, and temperature coefficient. The key difference is the power rating: ESR18EZPF2003 is rated at 0.5W versus 0.25W for RVC1206FT200K. This part is suitable for applications requiring higher power dissipation and includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and pulse withstanding capability. Physical dimensions are slightly larger (3.20mm x 1.60mm versus 3.10mm x 1.55mm).

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and are suitable for applications with RoHS requirements.

Q: What does the 1206 package designation mean?

A: 1206 refers to the surface-mount package size in imperial units (0.12" x 0.06") and metric equivalent (3.2mm x 1.6mm). All listed parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package, ensuring mechanical compatibility on PCB layouts designed for this footprint.

Q: Which substitute part has the highest inventory availability?

A: CRCW1206200KFKEAC (Vishay Dale) has the highest inventory at 39079 units and is an active product with direct electrical and mechanical equivalence to RVC1206FT200K.
