Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ERA-2HEC6201X is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 6.2 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±0.25% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.063W minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Package: 0402 (1005 Metric) (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±25ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Composition: Thin Film (exact match required)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (required)

The ERA-2AEC6201X meets all substitution criteria. This part maintains identical electrical specifications while offering automotive-grade AEC-Q200 qualification and extended operating temperature range to 155°C, compared to the standard 125°C maximum of the ERA-2HEC6201X.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ERA-2AEC6201X is the qualified substitute for the obsolete ERA-2HEC6201X. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring direct functional compatibility in existing designs. The ERA-2AEC6201X provides the additional advantage of active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

The ERA-2AEC6201X carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which exceeds the requirements of standard industrial applications. This qualification is not detrimental to non-automotive use and provides enhanced reliability assurance. The extended operating temperature range of the ERA-2AEC6201X (-55°C to 155°C versus -55°C to 125°C) offers improved thermal margin for applications operating near temperature limits.

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, confirming suitability for standard manufacturing and storage conditions without moisture sensitivity constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ERA-2AEC6201X be used as a direct replacement for the ERA-2HEC6201X?

A: Yes. The ERA-2AEC6201X is a direct substitute. Both parts have identical resistance (6.2 kOhms), tolerance (±0.25%), power rating (0.063W), package (0402), and temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C). Physical dimensions and termination count are identical, enabling direct PCB compatibility without design modification.

Q: What is the difference between the ERA-2HEC6201X and ERA-2AEC6201X?

A: The primary differences are product status and automotive qualification. The ERA-2HEC6201X is obsolete; the ERA-2AEC6201X is active. The ERA-2AEC6201X carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and supports an extended operating temperature range to 155°C compared to 125°C for the ERA-2HEC6201X. Electrical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there any package or footprint differences?

A: No. Both parts use the 0402 (1005 Metric) package with identical dimensions (0.039" L x 0.020" W / 1.00mm x 0.50mm) and maximum seated height (0.016" / 0.40mm). PCB footprints are interchangeable.

Q: Does the AEC-Q200 qualification affect non-automotive applications?

A: No. AEC-Q200 qualification represents enhanced reliability testing and quality assurance. It does not restrict use in non-automotive applications and provides additional confidence in component performance and longevity.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the ERA-2HEC6201X and ERA-2AEC6201X are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, confirming compatibility with standard manufacturing processes and storage conditions.
