TE Connectivity 1879061-1 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The TE Connectivity 1879061-1 is a 3 kOhms ±0.1% thin film chip resistor in 0402 (1005 Metric) package rated at 0.063W (1/16W) power dissipation. This component operates across -55°C to 155°C with a temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C and is classified as obsolete. Due to its obsolete status, equivalent substitute parts from active manufacturers are necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure long-term component availability for production and field replacement applications.

  • Composition: Thin Film
  • Temperature Coefficient: ±25ppm/°C (or tighter)
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C (minimum)
  • Power Rating: 0.063W (1/16W) minimum

Acceptable Variations:

  • Tolerance tighter than ±0.1% (e.g., ±0.05%)
  • Power rating higher than 0.063W

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalents (Functionally Identical):

The following parts provide direct functional equivalence to the TE Connectivity 1879061-1 with all core parameters matching:

  • ERA-2AEB302X (Panasonic): Active status with Automotive AEC-Q200 certification. Identical electrical specifications and operating range. Suitable for general-purpose and automotive applications.

  • RT0402BRD073KL (YAGEO): Active status with matching specifications. No additional certifications. Suitable for general-purpose applications requiring standard thin film performance.

  • RG1005P-302-B-T5 (Susumu): Active status with Automotive AEC-Q200 and Anti-Sulfur features. Identical core specifications with enhanced environmental protection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a substitute part with ±0.05% tolerance instead of ±0.1%?

A: Yes. Tighter tolerance is an acceptable upgrade. Parts with ±0.05% tolerance (RG1005N-302-W-T1, RG1005P-302-W-T5) provide improved accuracy while maintaining full compatibility with the original design.

Q: What is the difference between the Susumu RG series parts?

A: The RG1005P-302-B-T5 has ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, while RG1005N-302-B-T5 and RG1005N-302-W-T1 have ±10ppm/°C. The "W" designation indicates ±0.05% tolerance versus "B" which indicates ±0.1% tolerance. Select based on your precision and temperature stability requirements.

Q: Is the Vishay MCS04020D3001BE100 suitable for all applications?

A: No. This part has a maximum operating temperature of 125°C, compared to 155°C for the original part. Use only in applications where the maximum operating temperature does not exceed 125°C.

Q: What does Automotive AEC-Q200 certification mean?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard for passive components. Parts with this certification (ERA-2AEB302X, RG1005P-302-B-T5, TNPW04023K00BEED, RG1005N-302-B-T5, RG1005N-302-W-T1, RG1005P-302-W-T5) are qualified for automotive applications and provide enhanced reliability assurance.

Q: Can I use TNPW04023K00BEED as a direct replacement?

A: Yes, with considerations. This part has higher power rating (0.13W vs. 0.063W) and extended temperature range (-55°C ~ 175°C), making it suitable for applications requiring greater thermal margin. The higher power rating does not create compatibility issues in standard circuits.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. All substitute parts use 0402 (1005 Metric) package with 2 terminations, identical footprint dimensions (0.039" L x 0.020" W / 1.00mm x 0.50mm), and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). All are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging.

Q: What is the difference between Anti-Sulfur and standard thin film resistors?

A: Anti-Sulfur resistors include protective measures against sulfur contamination in high-sulfur environments. Parts with this feature (MCS04020D3001BE100, RG1005P-302-B-T5, TNPW04023K00BEED, RG1005N-302-B-T5, RG1005N-302-W-T1, RG1005P-302-W-T5) provide enhanced reliability in industrial and automotive applications.

Q: Which substitute offers the best overall performance upgrade?

A: RG1005N-302-W-T1 provides the most comprehensive upgrade with ±0.05% tolerance, ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient, Automotive AEC-Q200, and Anti-Sulfur features, while maintaining identical power rating and operating temperature range.
