Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RVC2010FT1K82 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 1.82 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 2010 (5025 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match or better required)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (exact match required)

The power rating may be increased from 0.5W to higher values (such as 0.75W) provided all other parameters remain identical and the physical dimensions remain compatible with the 2010 package footprint. An increase in power rating does not compromise circuit functionality and may provide additional thermal margin in power-dissipation-sensitive applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RMCF2010FT1K82 is a direct electrical substitute for the RVC2010FT1K82 with the following considerations:

The RMCF2010FT1K82 provides a higher power rating (0.75W versus 0.5W) while maintaining identical resistance, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. Both components are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 rating.

The RMCF2010FT1K82 includes Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, indicating enhanced reliability testing and suitability for automotive applications. This qualification does not restrict use in non-automotive applications.

Physical dimensions are compatible with identical footprint (2010 package), with a maximum seated height difference of 0.002" (0.05mm), which is negligible for standard PCB assembly processes.

Both components are manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc and maintain active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RMCF2010FT1K82 replace RVC2010FT1K82 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RMCF2010FT1K82 is electrically and mechanically compatible. Identical resistance, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range ensure functional equivalence. The higher power rating and automotive qualification do not introduce incompatibility.

Q: What is the significance of the AEC-Q200 qualification on the RMCF2010FT1K82?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry standard qualification demonstrating enhanced reliability testing. This qualification is applicable to automotive designs but does not restrict use in general-purpose or non-automotive applications.

Q: Are there physical footprint differences between these parts?

A: Both components use the 2010 (5025 Metric) package with identical length and width (0.197" x 0.098"). Maximum seated height differs by 0.002" (0.05mm), which is within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect placement or functionality.

Q: Do both parts meet RoHS and environmental compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both RVC2010FT1K82 and RMCF2010FT1K82 are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level), meeting standard environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: Is the increased power rating of RMCF2010FT1K82 a disadvantage?

A: No. A higher power rating provides additional thermal margin and does not negatively impact circuit performance. It may be beneficial in applications with elevated ambient temperatures or higher power dissipation margins.
