Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RG3216N-8872-B-T5 is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

• Resistance Value: 88.7 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±0.1% (exact match required)
• Power Rating: 0.25W / 1/4W (exact match required)
• Package Format: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thin Film (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±10ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)
• Automotive Certification: AEC-Q200 (exact match required)
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected (exact match required)

The ERA-8ARB8872V from Panasonic Electronic Components meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a direct equivalent.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RG3216N-8872-B-T5 and ERA-8ARB8872V 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.

The ERA-8ARB8872V from Panasonic offers higher inventory availability (1931 pcs vs. 1026 pcs) and maintains equivalent compliance status. The maximum seated height difference of 0.008" (0.20mm) between the two parts is within typical PCB assembly tolerances for 1206 package components and does not affect functional performance or circuit operation.

Both components satisfy ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status for regulated markets. Selection should prioritize component availability and established supplier relationships within your procurement workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8ARB8872V be used as a direct replacement for RG3216N-8872-B-T5?

A: Yes. The ERA-8ARB8872V meets all electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct substitution. Both components share identical resistance value (88.7 kOhms), tolerance (±0.1%), power rating (0.25W), package format (1206), temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C), and AEC-Q200 automotive certification.

Q: What is the significance of the height difference between these parts?

A: The RG3216N-8872-B-T5 has a maximum seated height of 0.020" (0.50mm), while the ERA-8ARB8872V measures 0.028" (0.70mm). This 0.008" (0.20mm) difference is within standard PCB assembly tolerances for 1206 package components and does not impact circuit functionality or board layout compatibility.

Q: Are both parts suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. Both the RG3216N-8872-B-T5 and ERA-8ARB8872V carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, confirming suitability for automotive-grade applications across the specified operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. These certifications confirm compliance with European environmental and hazardous substance regulations applicable to electronic components.

Q: Does the anti-sulfur feature of the RG3216N-8872-B-T5 affect substitution compatibility?

A: The anti-sulfur coating on the RG3216N-8872-B-T5 is a manufacturing feature that does not establish a substitution barrier. The ERA-8ARB8872V maintains equivalent performance through its thin film composition and AEC-Q200 rating, which encompasses environmental durability requirements for automotive applications.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity rating for both parts?

A: Both components carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity level, indicating no moisture-related storage or handling restrictions. Standard component storage practices apply.
