An upgrade with higher 4W power rating and superior TCR in the same 2512 package.
RLP25FEGR100 is a 3W, 100mΩ, 1% tolerance AEC-Q200 current sense resistor in a 2512 package. Several pin-compatible alternatives exist, offering similar or improved performance for automotive and industrial applications.
Using a part without matching AEC-Q200 qualification in a required application can lead to premature failure.
Multiple candidates share the same 2512 package, but land pattern should always be verified.
Direct replacement for RLP25FEGR100 should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Upgrade to VMS-R100-1.0-U for higher power handling and precision, or use LR123WF400NT4E for a like-for-like replacement.
The main risk is using a substitute without AEC-Q200 qualification in an automotive or high-reliability application that requires it.
