ERA-6YEB683V Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ERA-6YEB683V is a 68 kOhms ±0.1% metal film chip resistor in 0805 (2012 Metric) package rated at 0.125W (1/8W) power dissipation. Manufactured by Panasonic Electronic Components as part of the ERA-6Y series, this part operates across -55°C to 125°C with a temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C. The product is currently obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent and substitute components that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility while meeting application requirements.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ERA-6YEB683V is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

Resistance Value: 68 kOhms (exact match required)
Tolerance: ±0.1% or tighter (±0.05% acceptable as upgrade)
Power Rating: Minimum 0.125W (higher ratings acceptable)
Package: 0805 (2012 Metric) form factor (mechanical and electrical compatibility)
Composition: Thin film or metal film (both acceptable for this specification)
Temperature Coefficient: ±25ppm/°C or better (lower values acceptable as upgrade)
Operating Temperature: Minimum -55°C to 125°C (extended ranges acceptable)
Compliance: ROHS3 compliant, MSL 1

Substitute parts are grouped into three categories: direct equivalents (matching all primary parameters), upgrades (improved tolerance or temperature coefficient), and cross-manufacturer alternatives (different manufacturers meeting identical electrical specifications).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalents (Panasonic ERA-6AEB683V, Vishay MCU08050D6802BP500, YAGEO RT0805BRD0768KL, Susumu RG2012P-683-B-T5)

These parts match the ERA-6YEB683V in resistance, tolerance, power rating, and temperature coefficient. All are active products in 0805 package. Selection among these depends on application requirements for automotive qualification (AEC-Q200) and extended temperature range. Panasonic ERA-6AEB683V and Susumu RG2012P-683-B-T5 provide AEC-Q200 certification and -55°C to 155°C operating range.

Upgraded Alternatives (Panasonic ERA-6APB683V, ERA-6ARB683V; Susumu RG2012N-683-W-T1)

These parts offer improved temperature coefficient (±15ppm/°C or ±10ppm/°C) and extended operating temperature to 155°C. Panasonic ERA-6ARB683V and Susumu RG2012N-683-W-T1 provide the tightest temperature coefficient at ±10ppm/°C. Panasonic ERA-6ARW683V offers the tightest tolerance at ±0.05% with ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient. All three are AEC-Q200 qualified.

Higher Power Rating Alternative (Vishay Dale TNPW080568K0BEEA, TNPW080568K0BEEN)

These parts provide 0.26W power rating (double the original specification) with extended operating temperature to 175°C. Both are AEC-Q200 qualified and suitable for applications requiring thermal margin or higher dissipation capability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-6AEB683V directly replace ERA-6YEB683V?

A: Yes. ERA-6AEB683V matches the electrical specifications (68 kOhms ±0.1%, 0.125W, ±25ppm/°C) and 0805 package. It is an active product with extended operating temperature (-55°C to 155°C) and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

Q: What is the difference between ERA-6APB683V and ERA-6ARB683V?

A: Both are Panasonic thin film 0805 resistors with 68 kOhms ±0.1% and 0.125W rating. ERA-6APB683V has ±15ppm/°C temperature coefficient, while ERA-6ARB683V has ±10ppm/°C. ERA-6ARB683V provides superior temperature stability.

Q: Are Susumu and YAGEO parts compatible with Panasonic originals?

A: Yes, for applications requiring only electrical equivalence. Susumu RG2012P-683-B-T5 and YAGEO RT0805BRD0768KL both meet the 68 kOhms ±0.1%, 0.125W, ±25ppm/°C specification in 0805 package. Susumu RG2012P-683-B-T5 includes AEC-Q200 certification; YAGEO RT0805BRD0768KL does not.

Q: When should TNPW080568K0BEEA be selected over standard equivalents?

A: TNPW080568K0BEEA provides 0.26W power rating (versus 0.125W) and extended temperature range to 175°C. Select this part when thermal margin is required or when operating temperature exceeds 155°C. Physical dimensions remain 0805 compatible.

Q: What does AEC-Q200 certification mean for resistor selection?

A: AEC-Q200 indicates automotive-grade qualification with enhanced reliability testing. Parts with this certification are suitable for automotive and high-reliability applications. Panasonic ERA-6A series, Susumu RG series, and Vishay Dale TNPW series carry this certification.

Q: Can tolerance be upgraded from ±0.1% to ±0.05%?

A: Yes. ERA-6ARW683V and Susumu RG2012N-683-W-T1 both provide ±0.05% tolerance, which is tighter than the original ±0.1%. These parts are direct upgrades for precision applications requiring lower tolerance.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity level), matching the original ERA-6YEB683V compliance status.
