Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RVC1206FT4M70 are qualified based on the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance value: 4.7 MOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Package: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Composition: Thick Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• RoHS3 compliance
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

The identified substitutes maintain these core electrical specifications and package compatibility. Dimensional variations within supplier tolerances and additional certifications (such as automotive qualification) do not preclude substitution when electrical performance and mechanical fit are equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts meet the core electrical and mechanical requirements for direct substitution. Selection among these options should be based on:

RMCF1206FT4M70: This Stackpole part carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Use this substitute when designs require automotive-grade component certification or when sourcing from automotive-qualified supply chains.

CR1206-FW-4704ELF: This Bourns part features moisture-resistant construction. Use this substitute when additional moisture resistance beyond standard MSL 1 performance is required or when Bourns supply chain integration is preferred.

RVC1206FT4M70: The original part remains the baseline option for general applications without specific automotive or enhanced moisture-resistance requirements.

All parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings, supporting deployment in standard industrial and commercial environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RMCF1206FT4M70 be used as a direct replacement for RVC1206FT4M70?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (4.7 MOhms ±1%, 0.25W), temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C), operating range (-55°C ~ 155°C), and 1206 package. The RMCF series adds AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which does not restrict use in non-automotive applications.

Q: What is the difference between CR1206-FW-4704ELF and the Stackpole options?

A: The CR1206-FW-4704ELF is manufactured by Bourns and incorporates moisture-resistant construction. Electrical performance and package dimensions are equivalent. The primary distinction is the manufacturer and enhanced moisture resistance feature.

Q: Are there dimensional compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: All three parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package. Minor dimensional variations exist within supplier tolerances (length 0.122" to 0.126", width 0.061" to 0.063", height 0.026" to 0.030"), but these fall within standard PCB pad and assembly equipment tolerances for 1206 components.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for cost optimization?

A: Part selection should be based on application requirements and supply chain availability rather than cost alone. Inventory levels vary: RVC1206FT4M70 (979 pcs), RMCF1206FT4M70 (38,124 pcs), CR1206-FW-4704ELF (25,557 pcs).

Q: Are all parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RVC1206FT4M70, RMCF1206FT4M70, and CR1206-FW-4704ELF are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) ratings.
