RT0805FRE0710R5L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0805FRE0710R5L is a 10.5 Ohm thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in the 0805 (2012 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.125W (1/8W) power dissipation with ±1% tolerance and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts may be required due to inventory constraints, supply chain considerations, or application-specific performance requirements such as improved tolerance or higher power ratings.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE0710R5L is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Compatibility Criteria:

• Resistance value: 10.5 Ohms (exact match required)
• Package format: 0805 (2012 Metric) (physical and electrical compatibility)
• Composition: Thin Film (electrical performance characteristics)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum (thermal compatibility)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement)

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• 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 in absolute value
• Moisture sensitivity level: MSL 1 or better

The substitute part 2-1625868-9 meets all mandatory criteria and provides improved specifications in tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%), power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W), and temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The 2-1625868-9 manufactured by TE Connectivity Passive Product is a direct substitute for the RT0805FRE0710R5L. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical operating temperature specifications. The substitute part provides enhanced performance characteristics including tighter tolerance (±0.1%), higher power dissipation capability (0.25W), and improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C). Physical dimensions are compatible with standard 0805 PCB footprints, with a maximum seated height difference of 0.002" (0.05mm) that remains within typical PCB assembly tolerances. Selection between these parts should be based on application requirements for tolerance precision and thermal margin.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 2-1625868-9 be used as a direct replacement for the RT0805FRE0710R5L?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance values, package formats, composition types, and operating temperature ranges. The substitute part meets or exceeds all electrical and mechanical specifications of the original part.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%), power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W), and temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C). The substitute part provides superior performance in all three parameters.

Q: Are there any PCB layout considerations when substituting these parts?

A: Both parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical length and width dimensions (2.00mm x 1.25mm). The seated height difference of 0.05mm is negligible for standard PCB assembly processes and does not require layout modifications.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Yes. Both the RT0805FRE0710R5L and 2-1625868-9 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, meeting identical environmental and regulatory standards.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-precision applications?

A: The 2-1625868-9 is suitable for applications requiring tighter tolerance control due to its ±0.1% specification compared to the ±1% tolerance of the original part.

Q: Can the RT0805FRE0710R5L be used in place of the 2-1625868-9?

A: No. While the substitute part can replace the original, the reverse substitution is not recommended because the original part has looser tolerance and lower power rating specifications.
