RT0805FRE07255RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0805FRE07255RL is a 255 Ohms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 0805 (2012 Metric) package rated at 0.125W (1/8W) power dissipation. Manufactured by YAGEO under the RT series, this component is actively produced and ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are required, or when enhanced specifications such as improved tolerance, higher power rating, or automotive qualification become necessary for specific applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE07255RL is determined by the following criteria:

Primary Compatibility Requirements:

• Resistance value: 255 Ohms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (mechanical and footprint compatibility)
• Composition: Thin Film (electrical performance characteristics)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (minimum requirement)
• RoHS3 compliance (regulatory requirement)

Allowable Variations:

• Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter than ±1%
• Power rating: May be equal to or higher than 0.125W
• Temperature coefficient: May be equal to or lower (better stability)
• Automotive qualification: Optional enhancement (AEC-Q200)

The three substitute parts listed below meet all primary compatibility requirements and represent upgrades or direct alternatives with enhanced or equivalent specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT0805DRE07255RL (YAGEO): This upgrade substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.5% versus ±1%) while maintaining identical power rating, package, and temperature specifications. Both components are YAGEO RT series products with active production status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection is appropriate when tighter resistance tolerance is required without increasing power dissipation or changing thermal characteristics.

6-2176091-2 (TE Connectivity Passive Product): This direct substitute provides the highest tolerance specification (±0.1%) and doubled power rating (0.25W versus 0.125W) in the same 0805 package. Temperature coefficient is improved to ±25ppm/°C. This component is suitable for applications requiring enhanced precision and thermal margin. ROHS3 compliance and active production status are confirmed.

ERA-6AEB2550V (Panasonic Electronic Components): This upgrade substitute combines ±0.1% tolerance with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification while maintaining the original 0.125W power rating and 0805 package. Temperature coefficient is ±25ppm/°C. Selection is mandatory for automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 certification. ROHS3 compliance and active production status are confirmed.

All three substitutes are mechanically and electrically compatible with the RT0805FRE07255RL and maintain full compliance with applicable regulatory standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT0805DRE07255RL be used as a direct replacement for RT0805FRE07255RL?

A: Yes. Both components are YAGEO RT series thin film resistors with 255 Ohms resistance in 0805 package. RT0805DRE07255RL offers improved tolerance (±0.5%) and is electrically and mechanically compatible. No circuit redesign is required.

Q: What is the primary difference between the main part and 6-2176091-2?

A: The 6-2176091-2 is manufactured by TE Connectivity and provides superior tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%), doubled power rating (0.25W versus 0.125W), and improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C). The 0805 package and resistance value remain identical.

Q: When should ERA-6AEB2550V be selected?

A: ERA-6AEB2550V must be selected for automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 qualification. It provides ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient in the same 0805 package and power rating as the original component.

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

A: Yes. All listed substitutes are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging in 0805 (2012 Metric) format, ensuring compatibility with standard pick-and-place assembly equipment.

Q: Do all parts meet RoHS3 compliance?

A: Yes. The main part and all three substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), confirming suitability for standard manufacturing and storage conditions.

Q: Can the higher power-rated 6-2176091-2 be used in place of the 0.125W original?

A: Yes. The 0.25W rating of 6-2176091-2 is a superset of the 0.125W requirement. The component will operate safely in any circuit designed for the original 0.125W resistor. The 0805 package dimensions remain unchanged.
