Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RG3216N-4872-B-T5 and ERA-8ARB4872V are active production components with identical electrical specifications and automotive AEC-Q200 certification. Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements rather than technical performance differences. Both components satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status for regulated markets. The ERA-8ARB4872V from Panasonic offers higher inventory availability (5585 pcs) compared to the Susumu RG3216N-4872-B-T5 (1002 pcs). The maximum seated height difference of 0.008" (0.20mm) between the two parts is within typical PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect functional performance or circuit operation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ERA-8ARB4872V replace the RG3216N-4872-B-T5 in automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are AEC-Q200 rated thin film resistors with identical electrical specifications (48.7 kOhms ±0.1%, 0.25W, ±10ppm/°C) and operating temperature ranges (-55°C ~ 155°C). Direct substitution is supported for automotive circuit designs.

Q: Are there physical compatibility concerns between these two parts?

A: Both parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package with identical length and width dimensions (0.126" x 0.063"). The seated height difference (0.020" vs 0.028") is within standard PCB assembly tolerances and does not affect placement or soldering processes.

Q: Do both parts meet regulatory compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both the RG3216N-4872-B-T5 and ERA-8ARB4872V are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. Both carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, suitable for standard storage and handling conditions.

Q: What is the tolerance specification for these resistors?

A: Both parts feature ±0.1% tolerance, classified as precision thin film resistors. This tolerance level is suitable for applications requiring accurate resistance values and minimal drift over operating conditions.

Q: Are these parts suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across the -55°C ~ 155°C temperature range with a temperature coefficient of ±10ppm/°C, supporting automotive and industrial applications with extended thermal requirements.
