Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE0728RL is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance Value: Must be 28 Ohms
• Package Type: Must be 0805 (2012 Metric) to ensure PCB footprint compatibility
• Composition: Thin film construction for consistent performance characteristics
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C to 155°C minimum
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant status required for regulatory alignment

The substitute part 7-1625868-0 (TE Connectivity Passive Product, RP73P series) meets all critical substitution criteria. While this substitute offers superior tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and higher power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W), these represent performance enhancements rather than deviations from the original specification. The lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C) provides improved thermal stability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RT0805FRE0728RL and 7-1625868-0 are directly interchangeable from an electrical and mechanical standpoint. Both components are actively produced, ROHS3 compliant, and rated for identical operating temperature ranges. The TE Connectivity substitute (7-1625868-0) provides enhanced performance specifications across tolerance, power dissipation, and temperature coefficient, making it suitable for applications requiring tighter control margins. Selection between these parts should be based on availability, cost considerations, and established supplier relationships, as both meet the functional requirements of the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 7-1625868-0 be used as a direct replacement for RT0805FRE0728RL?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value (28 Ohms), package type (0805), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The substitute meets or exceeds all electrical and mechanical specifications of the original part.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The TE Connectivity 7-1625868-0 offers tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%), higher power rating (0.25W vs 0.125W), and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C). These represent performance improvements, not deviations.

Q: Will the substitute fit the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. Both parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical length and width dimensions (2.00mm x 1.25mm). Maximum seated height differs by 0.05mm (0.65mm vs 0.60mm), which is within standard PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RT0805FRE0728RL and 7-1625868-0 are ROHS3 compliant and suitable for applications requiring regulatory compliance.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these components?

A: Both parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
