RE0805FRE07261KL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RE0805FRE07261KL is a 261 kOhms ±1% thick film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in 0805 (2012 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.125W (1/8W) power dissipation with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part maintains Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent resistance values, package dimensions, and electrical ratings can accommodate the application requirements while maintaining compatibility with PCB assembly processes.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RE0805FRE07261KL are qualified based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 261 kOhms
• Identical package format: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Identical physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W (2.00mm x 1.25mm)
• Identical composition: Thick Film
• Identical temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C
• Identical operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
• Identical RoHS3 compliance status
• Identical MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

Substitutes may differ in tolerance specification (±0.1% or ±0.5% versus ±1%) and power rating (0.25W versus 0.125W), provided these parameters meet or exceed the application requirements. Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification is an additional feature in substitute parts and does not restrict substitution in non-automotive applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both Panasonic ERJ-PB6 series substitutes maintain Active product status and full RoHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment with the original RE0805FRE07261KL.

The ERJ-PB6B2613V offers ±0.1% tolerance with 0.25W power rating and includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. This part is suitable for applications requiring tighter tolerance control than the original ±1% specification.

The ERJ-PB6D2613V provides ±0.5% tolerance with 0.25W power rating and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. This part balances tolerance improvement over the original specification while maintaining cost efficiency.

Both substitutes feature increased power rating (0.25W versus 0.125W), providing additional thermal margin in the application. The maximum seated height increases from 0.024" to 0.028", which must be evaluated for PCB clearance constraints in space-limited designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERJ-PB6B2613V or ERJ-PB6D2613V be used as direct replacements for RE0805FRE07261KL?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value, package format, physical dimensions, composition, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. The 0805 (2012 Metric) package ensures PCB footprint compatibility. Increased power rating and improved tolerance specifications in the substitutes do not restrict their use in applications designed for the original part.

Q: What is the impact of the 0.004" (0.10mm) height difference between the original and substitute parts?

A: The substitute parts have a maximum seated height of 0.028" compared to 0.024" for the original. This 0.004" increase must be evaluated against PCB assembly clearance requirements, particularly in designs with minimal vertical spacing or conformal coating processes. Standard PCB assembly processes typically accommodate this variation without modification.

Q: How do tolerance differences affect circuit performance?

A: The original RE0805FRE07261KL specifies ±1% tolerance. Substitute parts offer ±0.1% (ERJ-PB6B2613V) or ±0.5% (ERJ-PB6D2613V) tolerance. Tighter tolerance reduces resistor value variation across production batches, improving circuit accuracy. Applications with loose tolerance requirements can use either substitute without performance impact. Applications requiring specific tolerance bands should select the appropriate substitute based on circuit design specifications.

Q: Are the Panasonic substitutes suitable for automotive applications?

A: Both Panasonic ERJ-PB6 series parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. This certification is an additional feature and does not restrict their use in non-automotive applications. Automotive-qualified components meet enhanced reliability and quality standards applicable to all end-use categories.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) for all parts in this comparison?

A: All three parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions. Standard storage and handling procedures apply without special desiccant or controlled humidity requirements.
