Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RG2012P-97R6-D-T5 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

  • Resistance value: 97.6 Ohms
  • Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric)
  • Composition: Thin Film
  • Temperature Coefficient: ±25ppm/°C
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C
  • RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

  • Tolerance: May be equal or tighter (±0.5% or better)
  • Power Rating: May be equal or higher (0.125W or greater)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RG2012P-97R6-D-T5 (Primary Part) Select this part when anti-sulfur coating is a design requirement and automotive AEC-Q200 qualification is mandatory. This component is the original specification and maintains all required certifications.

2-2176091-3 (TE Connectivity Passive Product) This substitute provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.5%) and higher power rating (0.25W versus 0.125W). The increased seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm) versus 0.020" (0.50mm) must be verified for PCB clearance compatibility. This part does not carry explicit AEC-Q200 rating. Select when tolerance improvement and power margin are beneficial and automotive qualification is not required.

ERA-6AEB97R6V (Panasonic Electronic Components) This substitute provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.5%) while maintaining the same power rating (0.125W) and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The seated height of 0.024" (0.60mm) is intermediate between the primary part and the TE Connectivity option. This part is suitable for direct substitution in automotive applications requiring improved tolerance performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2-2176091-3 be used as a direct replacement for the RG2012P-97R6-D-T5?

A: The 2-2176091-3 is electrically compatible as a substitute. All critical parameters match: 97.6 Ohms resistance, 0805 package, thin film composition, ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -55°C to 155°C operating range. The higher power rating (0.25W versus 0.125W) and tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.5%) represent improvements. The increased seated height (0.026" versus 0.020") requires verification for PCB layout clearance. The absence of explicit AEC-Q200 rating must be evaluated against automotive requirements.

Q: Is the ERA-6AEB97R6V suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. The ERA-6AEB97R6V carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification identical to the primary part. It provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.5%) and maintains the same 0.125W power rating and 0805 package. The seated height of 0.024" (0.60mm) is compatible with standard PCB designs. This part is suitable for direct substitution in automotive circuits.

Q: What is the impact of tolerance differences between these parts?

A: The primary part RG2012P-97R6-D-T5 specifies ±0.5% tolerance, while both substitute parts specify ±0.1% tolerance. Tighter tolerance reduces resistance value variation across the production batch. In circuits where precise resistance values are critical, the ±0.1% tolerance parts provide improved performance. In applications with wider tolerance margins, all three parts are functionally equivalent.

Q: Are there height restrictions for PCB assembly?

A: The seated heights differ slightly: RG2012P-97R6-D-T5 at 0.020" (0.50mm), ERA-6AEB97R6V at 0.024" (0.60mm), and 2-2176091-3 at 0.026" (0.65mm). For standard PCB designs with typical component clearances, all three parts are compatible. Applications with restricted vertical space or specific height requirements must verify the seated height specification against PCB design constraints.

Q: Do all parts meet RoHS and REACH compliance?

A: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant. The primary part and ERA-6AEB97R6V specify REACH Unaffected status. The 2-2176091-3 lists REACH status as Vendor Undefined. For applications requiring confirmed REACH compliance, the primary part or ERA-6AEB97R6V are preferred.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: RG2012P-97R6-D-T5 has 774 units in stock. 2-2176091-3 has 1072 units in stock. ERA-6AEB97R6V has 9845 units in stock. Availability should be confirmed with the supplier for current project requirements.
