LVC06JR820EV Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LVC06JR820EV is a 0.82 Ohm, ±5% tolerance, 0.5W thick film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by Ohmite. This component is designed for current sense applications with moisture-resistant characteristics. The part is currently obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and procurement.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the LVC06JR820EV is determined by the following critical parameters:

Resistance Value: 820 mOhms (exact match required)
Tolerance: ±5% minimum (tighter tolerances are acceptable upgrades)
Power Rating: 0.5W minimum (higher ratings are acceptable)
Package: 1206 (3216 Metric) form factor (mandatory for PCB compatibility)
Composition: Thick Film (standard for current sense applications)
Temperature Coefficient: ±200ppm/°C or better
Operating Temperature: Must support -40°C to 125°C minimum range
RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement)

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Direct Equivalents: Parts with identical or superior electrical specifications that maintain the same tolerance and power rating.

Upgrade Options: Parts with improved tolerance (±1% vs ±5%) or enhanced temperature coefficient performance, suitable for applications requiring higher precision.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Same Electrical Performance)

RLP73K2BR82JTD (TE Connectivity) provides the closest functional equivalent with identical 0.5W power rating and ±5% tolerance. This part maintains the same electrical characteristics while offering active product status and extended operating temperature range (-55 to 155°C). Inventory availability is substantial at 9,267 pieces.

For Tolerance-Critical Applications

CSR1206FTR820 (Stackpole Electronics) and RCWE1206R820FKEA (Vishay Dale) both offer ±1% tolerance with 0.5W power rating. RCWE1206R820FKEA includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and superior temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C). RCWE1206R820FKEA has the highest inventory availability at 25,072 pieces.

For Extended Temperature Range Applications

All substitute parts support -55 to 155°C operating range, exceeding the original LVC06JR820EV specification of -40 to 125°C. This provides additional design margin for temperature-sensitive applications.

For Automotive Applications

RCWL1206R820JNEA, RCWE1206R820FKEA, and RL1206FR-070R82L carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. These parts are suitable for automotive-grade designs requiring enhanced reliability standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use a 0.25W rated part as a substitute for the 0.5W LVC06JR820EV?

A: No. The 0.5W power rating is a minimum requirement. Parts rated at 0.25W (RCWL1206R820JNEA, RL73K2BR82JTD, RL1206FR-070R82L) cannot safely replace the original part in applications requiring 0.5W dissipation capacity. Use only parts rated 0.5W or higher: RLP73K2BR82FTDF, RLP73K2BR82JTD, CSR1206FTR820, or RCWE1206R820FKEA.

Q: What is the difference between ±5% and ±1% tolerance parts?

A: Tolerance defines the acceptable resistance variation from the nominal 820 mOhm value. ±5% tolerance allows variation between 779 mOhm and 861 mOhm. ±1% tolerance restricts variation to 812 mOhm and 828 mOhm. Applications requiring precise current sensing or tight circuit performance should use ±1% parts (CSR1206FTR820, RCWE1206R820FKEA, RLP73K2BR82FTDF, RL1206FR-070R82L).

Q: Are all substitute parts in the same 1206 package?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package form factor, ensuring PCB footprint compatibility. Physical dimensions vary slightly between manufacturers but remain within the 1206 standard envelope.

Q: Which substitute part has the best long-term availability?

A: RLP73K2BR82JTD (TE Connectivity) and RCWE1206R820FKEA (Vishay Dale) both have active product status with substantial inventory. RCWE1206R820FKEA offers the highest current stock at 25,072 pieces and includes automotive qualification.

Q: Can I use parts with different temperature coefficients?

A: Yes, if your application permits. The original LVC06JR820EV specifies ±200ppm/°C. CSR1206FTR820 and RCWE1206R820FKEA offer superior ±100ppm/°C performance, which is acceptable for any application tolerating the original specification. Parts with ±200ppm/°C or better meet the requirement.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, matching the original part's regulatory status.
