RT0402FRE07154RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0402FRE07154RL is a 154 Ohm ±1% thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in 0402 (1005 Metric) package format. This surface mount device is rated for 0.063W (1/16W) power dissipation and operates across -55°C to 155°C. The part maintains Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent resistance values, power ratings, package dimensions, and operating temperature ranges align with the original specification, while potentially offering improved tolerance, temperature coefficient performance, or automotive qualification.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0402FRE07154RL is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Resistance value: 154 Ohms (exact match required)
• Package format: 0402 (1005 Metric) with compatible footprint dimensions
• Power rating: Minimum 0.063W (1/16W)
• Operating temperature range: Must encompass -55°C to 155°C
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Termination count: 2 terminations
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The three identified substitute parts meet all mandatory parameters. Tolerance and temperature coefficient represent performance enhancements rather than substitution barriers, as tighter tolerances and lower temperature coefficients maintain backward compatibility while improving circuit stability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All substitute parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original RT0402FRE07154RL specification.

CPF0402B154RE1 (TE Connectivity Passive Product) offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and reduced temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) while maintaining identical package height and footprint compatibility.

ERA-2AEB1540X (Panasonic Electronic Components) provides the same tolerance and temperature coefficient improvements as CPF0402B154RE1, with the addition of AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The seated height increases to 0.016" (0.40mm), requiring verification of clearance constraints in space-limited applications.

RN73C1E154RBTDF (TE Connectivity Passive Product, Holsworthy series) delivers the lowest temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C) among all options, supporting applications requiring superior long-term stability. Package height remains at 0.014" (0.35mm), matching the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CPF0402B154RE1 be used as a direct replacement for RT0402FRE07154RL?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (154 Ohms), power rating (0.063W), package format (0402), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), and seated height (0.014"). The tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) represent performance improvements without compatibility concerns.

Q: What is the primary difference between ERA-2AEB1540X and the other substitutes?

A: ERA-2AEB1540X includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for automotive applications. Its seated height is 0.016" (0.40mm), compared to 0.014" (0.35mm) for other options. This 0.002" difference requires clearance verification in designs with tight vertical spacing constraints.

Q: Which substitute offers the best temperature stability?

A: RN73C1E154RBTDF provides the lowest temperature coefficient at ±10ppm/°C, compared to ±25ppm/°C for CPF0402B154RE1 and ERA-2AEB1540X, and ±50ppm/°C for the original RT0402FRE07154RL. This specification is relevant for precision analog circuits and temperature-sensitive applications.

Q: Are all substitutes compatible with the same PCB footprint?

A: All substitutes use the 0402 (1005 Metric) package with identical length (0.039") and width (0.020"). Three parts (RT0402FRE07154RL, CPF0402B154RE1, RN73C1E154RBTDF) share 0.014" maximum seated height. ERA-2AEB1540X reaches 0.016" maximum seated height, which may affect clearance in applications with height-constrained component placement.

Q: Do all parts meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. All four parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, and maintain Active product status. ERA-2AEB1540X adds AEC-Q200 automotive qualification as an additional certification.
