RT0805FRE07280RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0805FRE07280RL is a 280 Ohms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 0805 (2012 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This surface mount device is rated for 0.125W (1/8W) power dissipation and operates across -55°C to 155°C. The part is ROHS3 compliant and carries MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to inventory availability, design specification upgrades, or application-specific requirements such as automotive qualification or enhanced tolerance specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE07280RL is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Resistance value: 280 Ohms (exact match required)
• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thin Film (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum (equal or wider range acceptable)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (equal or higher standard acceptable)
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited) or equivalent (equal or better acceptable)

Substitute parts may exceed the original tolerance specification (±1%), power rating (0.125W), or temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C) without compromising backward compatibility. Parts with enhanced specifications remain functionally equivalent for applications designed around the original part's electrical and thermal characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts are functionally equivalent to the RT0805FRE07280RL based on core electrical and mechanical parameters. Selection between alternatives depends on application-specific requirements:

The 6-2176091-6 (TE Connectivity) offers enhanced tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and increased power dissipation capability (0.25W vs 0.125W) while maintaining identical package dimensions and operating temperature range. This part is suitable for applications requiring tighter resistance tolerances or higher thermal headroom.

The ERA-6AEB2800V (Panasonic) provides enhanced tolerance (±0.1%), improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C), and automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. This part is specified for automotive and mission-critical applications where component reliability certifications are mandatory. Physical dimensions and power rating match the original specification exactly.

All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard surface mount assembly processes and storage conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 6-2176091-6 be used as a direct replacement for the RT0805FRE07280RL?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (280 Ohms), package type (0805), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The substitute part exceeds the original specification in tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W), making it functionally backward compatible. The maximum seated height difference (0.026" vs 0.024") is within typical PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: What is the difference between the TE Connectivity and Panasonic alternatives?

A: Both offer ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient improvements over the original part. The primary distinction is that the Panasonic ERA-6AEB2800V carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, while the TE Connectivity 6-2176091-6 does not. The TE part provides higher power dissipation (0.25W vs 0.125W). Select the Panasonic part for automotive applications; select the TE part for general industrial applications requiring higher power handling.

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

A: All three parts use identical 0805 (2012 Metric) package footprints and land patterns. No PCB redesign is required. The maximum seated height variation (0.024" to 0.026") is negligible for standard surface mount assembly and does not affect component clearance or solder joint integrity.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings. The Panasonic ERA-6AEB2800V additionally qualifies under AEC-Q200 automotive standards. REACH compliance status varies by manufacturer but does not affect electrical or mechanical substitution eligibility.

Q: Which part should be selected for cost optimization?

A: Selection should be based on application requirements rather than cost alone. The original RT0805FRE07280RL specification (±1% tolerance, ±50ppm/°C) is suitable for general-purpose applications. The TE Connectivity 6-2176091-6 is appropriate for applications requiring enhanced tolerance or higher power dissipation. The Panasonic ERA-6AEB2800V is mandatory for automotive and safety-critical applications.
