ERA-3YEB162V Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference

Part Overview

The ERA-3YEB162V is a 1.6 kOhms ±0.1% metal film chip resistor in 0603 (1608 Metric) package rated for 0.1W power dissipation. This part is classified as obsolete. Due to its discontinued status, equivalent substitute parts from active product lines are necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. Suitable alternatives maintain the core electrical specifications while offering enhanced features such as automotive qualification, improved temperature coefficients, or tighter tolerances.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

Resistance value: 1.6 kOhms (exact match required)
Package: 0603 (1608 Metric) (exact match required)
Tolerance: ±0.1% or tighter (equal or better)
Power rating: 0.1W minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
Composition: Thin film or metal film (functionally equivalent)
Temperature coefficient: ±25ppm/°C or better (equal or tighter acceptable)
Operating temperature range: -55°C minimum to 125°C minimum (equal or wider acceptable)
RoHS3 compliance: Required
MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited) or equivalent

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct Substitutes maintain all electrical and mechanical parameters equivalent to the original part, enabling drop-in replacement without design modification.

Upgrade Substitutes offer improved specifications (tighter tolerance, lower temperature coefficient, extended temperature range, or automotive qualification) while maintaining full backward compatibility with the original part's electrical requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Standard Industrial Applications: ERA-3AEB162V (Panasonic) provides direct functional equivalence with active product status and automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. Extended operating temperature range to 155°C offers design margin beyond the original specification.

For Automotive and High-Reliability Applications: ERA-3ARB162V or ERA-3ARW162V (Panasonic) are recommended. Both feature AEC-Q200 qualification, ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and extended temperature range. ERA-3ARW162V offers superior tolerance at ±0.05% for precision-critical circuits.

For Cost-Optimized Procurement: RG1608P-162-B-T5 (Susumu) or RT0603BRD071K6L (YAGEO) deliver equivalent electrical performance with active status. Both maintain ±0.1% tolerance and 0603 package compatibility.

For Extended Temperature Applications: TNPW06031K60BEEA (Vishay Dale) extends operating range to 175°C with higher power rating (0.21W) and AEC-Q200 qualification, suitable for harsh environment deployment.

For Precision Circuits: RG1608N-162-P-T1 (Susumu) provides ±0.02% tolerance with ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient and AEC-Q200 qualification for applications requiring superior stability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-3YEB162V be directly replaced with any of these substitutes? A: Yes. All listed substitutes maintain the 1.6 kOhms resistance, ±0.1% or tighter tolerance, 0.1W minimum power rating, and 0603 package. Physical and electrical compatibility is confirmed for direct replacement.

Q: What is the difference between direct and upgrade substitutes? A: Direct substitutes (ERA-3AEB162V, MCT06030D1601BP500, RG1608P-162-B-T5, RT0603BRD071K6L, TNPW06031K60BEEA) match or exceed the original specifications. Upgrade substitutes (ERA-3APB162V, ERA-3ARB162V, ERA-3ARW162V, RG1608N-162-B-T5, RG1608N-162-P-T1) offer improved performance characteristics such as tighter tolerance or lower temperature coefficient.

Q: Does package compatibility require any PCB modifications? A: No. All substitutes use the 0603 (1608 Metric) package with identical footprint dimensions (0.063" L × 0.031" W, 1.60mm × 0.80mm). No PCB layout changes are necessary.

Q: Are all substitutes RoHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), matching the original part's environmental qualification.

Q: Which substitute offers the best temperature stability? A: ERA-3ARW162V and RG1608N-162-P-T1 both feature ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient. RG1608N-162-P-T1 additionally provides ±0.02% tolerance for maximum stability in precision applications.
