Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE0710R2L is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Criteria:

• Resistance value: 10.2 Ohms (exact match required)
• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric) form factor
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating temperature range: Must encompass -55°C to 155°C minimum
• Termination count: 2 terminations

Allowable Parameter Variations:

• Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter than ±1%
• Power rating: May be equal to or greater than 0.125W
• Temperature coefficient: May be equal to or lower (better stability)
• RoHS and MSL compliance: Must meet or exceed current specifications

The substitute part 2-1625868-8 (TE Connectivity) meets all mandatory criteria and offers enhanced specifications in tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W), making it a direct electrical and mechanical substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT0805FRE0710R2L and 2-1625868-8 are active production components with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings, making them suitable for standard industrial and commercial applications.

The RT0805FRE0710R2L remains the primary choice for applications where the specified ±1% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient are sufficient and cost optimization is a priority.

The 2-1625868-8 substitute is appropriate for applications requiring enhanced precision (±0.1% tolerance), improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C), or higher power dissipation capability (0.25W). The identical package footprint and operating temperature range ensure direct PCB compatibility without layout modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 2-1625868-8 be used as a direct replacement for RT0805FRE0710R2L in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance values, package dimensions (0805), and operating temperature ranges. The substitute offers superior tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications, making it electrically and mechanically compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What is the physical difference between these two parts?

A: Both components use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical length (0.079") and width (0.049"). The maximum seated height differs slightly: RT0805FRE0710R2L is 0.024" (0.60mm) while 2-1625868-8 is 0.026" (0.65mm). This minimal difference does not affect PCB assembly or clearance in standard designs.

Q: Are there tolerance or performance trade-offs when substituting?

A: No trade-offs exist. The substitute part 2-1625868-8 provides equal or superior performance across all measured parameters: tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%), lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C), and higher power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W).

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both components are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), meeting identical environmental and regulatory requirements for industrial applications.

Q: Which part should be selected for precision analog circuits?

A: The 2-1625868-8 is preferred for precision applications due to its ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, providing superior stability and accuracy compared to the ±1% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C coefficient of the RT0805FRE0710R2L.
