Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE07118RL is determined by the following criteria:

• Resistance Value: Must be 118 Ohms
• Package Format: Must be 0805 (2012 Metric) with compatible footprint dimensions
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C ~ 155°C minimum
• Compliance: RoHS3 compliance required
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 (Unlimited) acceptable

Tolerance and power rating variations are permitted when the substitute part meets or exceeds the original specifications. Temperature coefficient improvements are acceptable upgrades. All identified substitutes maintain the same 118 Ohms resistance value and 0805 package geometry.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT0805BRD07118RL (YAGEO Upgrade): This substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and reduced temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) while maintaining identical power rating and package specifications. Suitable for applications requiring tighter resistance accuracy without power rating changes.

3-2176091-1 (TE Connectivity Direct Substitute): This part provides increased power dissipation capability (0.25W versus 0.125W) with improved tolerance and temperature coefficient. The maximum seated height increases from 0.024" to 0.026", which remains within typical 0805 package tolerances. Applicable for circuits requiring higher power handling in the same footprint.

ERA-6AEB1180V (Panasonic Automotive Grade): This substitute combines ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability and environmental performance specifications.

All substitutes maintain active production status and full RoHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory conformance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT0805BRD07118RL replace RT0805FRE07118RL in any application?

A: Yes. RT0805BRD07118RL is electrically and mechanically compatible. It provides superior tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) while maintaining the same 0.125W power rating and 0805 package footprint.

Q: What is the primary difference between 3-2176091-1 and the original part?

A: The 3-2176091-1 is rated for 0.25W (1/4W) power dissipation compared to the original 0.125W (1/8W) rating. Both maintain 118 Ohms resistance and 0805 package compatibility. Maximum seated height increases from 0.024" to 0.026", remaining within standard 0805 tolerances.

Q: Is ERA-6AEB1180V suitable for non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. ERA-6AEB1180V meets all electrical and mechanical requirements for the 118 Ohms 0805 application. AEC-Q200 qualification indicates enhanced reliability and environmental performance, making it suitable for general industrial and commercial applications.

Q: Do all substitutes fit the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. All substitutes use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical length (0.079") and width (0.049"). Maximum seated heights range from 0.024" to 0.026", which falls within standard 0805 package tolerance specifications.

Q: Which substitute offers the best temperature stability?

A: RT0805BRD07118RL, 3-2176091-1, and ERA-6AEB1180V all provide ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, compared to ±50ppm/°C for the original RT0805FRE07118RL. All three substitutes offer equivalent temperature stability performance.
