RT0402FRE07169RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0402FRE07169RL is a 169 Ohms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 0402 (1005 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This surface-mount device is rated for 0.063W (1/16W) power dissipation and operates across -55°C to 155°C. The part is Active status and ROHS3 compliant, suitable for general-purpose SMD applications requiring standard tolerance resistive elements.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent resistance values, package dimensions, power ratings, and operating temperature ranges are maintained. Alternative manufacturers offer improved tolerance specifications or automotive-grade certifications while preserving core electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:

Resistance Value: Must be 169 Ohms
Package / Case: Must be 0402 (1005 Metric)
Power Rating: Must be 0.063W (1/16W) minimum
Operating Temperature Range: Must cover -55°C ~ 155°C
Composition: Thin film construction
Termination Count: 2 terminations
RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

All identified substitute parts meet these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Tolerance specifications may vary (±1% to ±0.1%), and temperature coefficients differ across manufacturers. Automotive-grade certification (AEC-Q200) is available in select alternatives.
