RT0805FRE07237RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0805FRE07237RL is a 237 Ohms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 0805 (2012 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This component is rated for 0.125W (1/8W) power dissipation with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part is currently active and ROHS3 compliant. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when design requirements allow for tolerance relaxation, power rating upgrades, or automotive-grade certifications while maintaining the same resistance value and package footprint.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:

• Resistance Value: Must be 237 Ohms
• Package: Must be 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Composition: Must be Thin Film
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C to 155°C minimum
• 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 than ±50ppm/°C
• Compliance: Must maintain ROHS3 compliance

The identified substitute parts meet these criteria with variations in tolerance, power rating, and temperature coefficient specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

5-2176091-9 (TE Connectivity RP73P): This part offers tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and higher power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W) while maintaining the same package and operating temperature range. Selection is appropriate for applications requiring improved tolerance performance or higher thermal headroom.

ERA-6AEB2370V (Panasonic ERA-6A): This part provides tighter tolerance (±0.1%), lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C), and AEC-Q200 automotive certification. Selection is appropriate for automotive applications or designs requiring enhanced stability and reliability.

ERA-6AED2370V (Panasonic ERA-6A): This part offers moderate tolerance (±0.5%), lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C), and AEC-Q200 automotive certification. Selection is appropriate for automotive applications where tolerance relaxation is acceptable but enhanced temperature stability is required.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 5-2176091-9 replace RT0805FRE07237RL in all applications?

A: Yes, provided the circuit design accommodates the higher power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W). The tighter tolerance and improved temperature coefficient are compatible with all applications requiring the original part.

Q: What is the primary advantage of ERA-6AEB2370V over the original part?

A: ERA-6AEB2370V provides AEC-Q200 automotive certification, tighter tolerance (±0.1%), and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C). These specifications are required for automotive applications.

Q: Are the Panasonic ERA-6A parts suitable for non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. ERA-6AEB2370V and ERA-6AED2370V meet all electrical and mechanical requirements for general-purpose applications. Automotive certification does not restrict use in non-automotive designs.

Q: What is the difference between ERA-6AEB2370V and ERA-6AED2370V?

A: Both parts share identical package, power rating, and temperature coefficient specifications. The difference is tolerance: ERA-6AEB2370V is ±0.1% while ERA-6AED2370V is ±0.5%. Selection depends on circuit tolerance requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Yes. All parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format with identical 0805 (2012 Metric) package dimensions and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably on the same PCB assembly?

A: Yes. All parts share identical footprint dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm) and are compatible with standard 0805 reflow soldering processes.
