Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE0715R4L is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: Must be 15.4 Ohms
• Package format: Must be 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Composition: Must be thin film
• Operating temperature range: Must support -55°C ~ 155°C minimum
• RoHS compliance: Must meet ROHS3 standard
• Moisture sensitivity: Must be MSL 1 or equivalent

The substitute part 4-1625868-5 (TE Connectivity Passive Product) meets all mandatory substitution criteria. This part maintains identical resistance value, package dimensions, and operating temperature specifications while offering enhanced tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and increased power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT0805FRE0715R4L and 4-1625868-5 are active production components with full ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, making them suitable for equivalent substitution in 0805 thin film resistor applications.

The 4-1625868-5 substitute offers performance enhancements including tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and higher power dissipation capability (0.25W vs 0.125W). The substitute also features improved temperature coefficient stability (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C). These characteristics make the TE Connectivity part suitable for applications requiring enhanced precision or thermal margin, while maintaining full mechanical and electrical compatibility within the 0805 package footprint.

Selection between these parts should be based on application requirements for tolerance, power dissipation, and thermal stability, as well as inventory availability and procurement lead times.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 4-1625868-5 be used as a direct replacement for RT0805FRE0715R4L?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (15.4 Ohms), package format (0805), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The substitute meets or exceeds all electrical and mechanical specifications of the original part.

Q: What are the key differences between these 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 provides tighter tolerance and greater thermal stability.

Q: Are there any height or footprint concerns?

A: Both parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical length and width (0.079" x 0.049"). Maximum seated height differs slightly (0.026" vs 0.024"), which remains within standard 0805 package tolerances and does not affect PCB layout compatibility.

Q: Do both parts meet RoHS and moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: Yes. Both the RT0805FRE0715R4L and 4-1625868-5 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, meeting standard environmental and handling requirements for commercial and industrial applications.

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

A: The 4-1625868-5 is suitable for applications requiring tighter tolerance specifications due to its ±0.1% tolerance rating compared to the ±1% tolerance of the original part.
