LVC06JR150EV Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LVC06JR150EV is a 150 mOhms ±5% 0.5W thick film chip resistor in 1206 package manufactured by Ohmite, designed for current sense applications with moisture-resistant characteristics. This part is classified as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. Active alternatives from TE Connectivity and Stackpole Electronics provide functional equivalents with enhanced specifications and improved availability.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

  • Resistance Value: Must be 150 mOhms
  • Tolerance: ±5% or tighter (±1% acceptable as upgrade)
  • Power Rating: Minimum 0.5W (0.25W is downgrade, not suitable)
  • Package: 1206 (3216 Metric) only
  • Composition: Thick Film
  • Application: Current Sense capability
  • Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, MSL 1

Substitute parts are categorized as follows:

Direct Equivalents maintain all primary specifications of the original part (150 mOhms, ±5%, 0.5W, 1206 package).

Upgrade Substitutes improve upon the original specifications while maintaining core functionality (tighter tolerance ±1%, enhanced temperature coefficient, extended operating range).

Downgrade Alternatives reduce power rating below 0.5W and are not suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring the full 0.5W rating.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Equivalent Selection: RLP73K2BR15JTD from TE Connectivity maintains identical electrical specifications (150 mOhms, ±5%, 0.5W) while offering active product status, extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C versus -40°C to 125°C), and superior availability (6,032 units in stock). This part is the primary replacement for the obsolete LVC06JR150EV.

Upgrade Selection: Both RLP73K2BR15FTDF (TE Connectivity) and CSR1206FKR150 (Stackpole Electronics) provide tighter tolerance (±1%) and extended temperature ranges. CSR1206FKR150 offers superior temperature stability with ±100ppm/°C coefficient versus ±200ppm/°C. These upgrades are suitable when improved accuracy is required.

Unsuitable Alternative: RL73K2BR15JTD features reduced power rating (0.25W versus 0.5W) and is not suitable for applications requiring the full 0.5W dissipation capability of the original part.

All recommended substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and 1206 package compatibility with the original design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RL73K2BR15JTD replace LVC06JR150EV? A: No. While this part shares the same resistance, tolerance, and package, its 0.25W power rating is insufficient for applications designed around the 0.5W specification of the original part. Thermal performance will be compromised.

Q: What is the primary substitute for the obsolete LVC06JR150EV? A: RLP73K2BR15JTD from TE Connectivity is the direct equivalent, maintaining all core specifications while offering active product status and improved availability.

Q: Are the upgrade parts (±1% tolerance) compatible with the original design? A: Yes. Tighter tolerance is a performance improvement and does not create compatibility issues. RLP73K2BR15FTDF and CSR1206FKR150 are fully compatible and provide enhanced accuracy for precision current sensing applications.

Q: Does package size differ between substitutes? A: All substitutes use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package. Physical dimensions vary slightly (0.120" to 0.122" length, 0.061" to 0.063" width) but remain within standard 1206 footprint tolerances and are PCB-compatible.

Q: What is the temperature coefficient difference between substitutes? A: The original LVC06JR150EV and most substitutes specify ±200ppm/°C. CSR1206FKR150 offers improved stability at ±100ppm/°C, reducing resistance drift over temperature extremes.

Q: Are all substitutes ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity) rating, matching the environmental specifications of the original part.
