RT0805FRE07294KL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0805FRE07294KL is a 294 kOhms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 0805 (2012 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This surface-mount resistor is rated for 0.125W (1/8W) power dissipation with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The component is ROHS3 compliant and carries MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. As an active product with established supply availability, equivalent and substitute parts are identified to support design flexibility, procurement optimization, and supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE07294KL is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance Value: All substitutes must provide 294 kOhms nominal resistance
• Package / Case: All substitutes must use 0805 (2012 Metric) package to ensure PCB footprint compatibility
• Composition: Thin film construction is maintained across all substitutes
• Operating Temperature Range: All substitutes must support -55°C to 155°C minimum
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliance is required for all substitutes
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL Level 1 is maintained across all substitutes

Tolerance, power rating, and temperature coefficient variations are permitted within the substitution set, as these parameters represent performance enhancements or alternative specifications suitable for the same circuit application. All identified substitutes meet or exceed the core electrical and mechanical requirements of the main part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

3-2176094-8 (TE Connectivity Passive Product): This substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and higher power rating (0.25W versus 0.125W). The TE Connectivity part is suitable for applications requiring tighter resistance tolerance and greater thermal headroom. ROHS3 compliance is confirmed. This part represents a direct upgrade path for designs with stricter accuracy requirements.

RG2012N-2943-D-T5 (Susumu): This substitute provides superior temperature coefficient performance (±10ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) and includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification with anti-sulfur construction. The Susumu part maintains the original 0.125W power rating and offers the lowest seated height (0.020" versus 0.024"). ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status are confirmed. This part is suitable for automotive applications and environments requiring enhanced stability across temperature extremes.

All three parts maintain identical resistance value, package footprint, composition type, operating temperature range, and compliance certifications. Selection between substitutes depends on application-specific requirements for tolerance, power dissipation capability, temperature stability, and environmental qualification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 3-2176094-8 be used as a direct replacement for the RT0805FRE07294KL?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (294 kOhms), package (0805), composition (thin film), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), and compliance status (ROHS3). The TE Connectivity part offers improved tolerance (±0.1%) and higher power rating (0.25W), making it suitable for the same circuit application with enhanced performance margins.

Q: What are the physical compatibility considerations when substituting these parts?

A: All three parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical footprint dimensions (0.079" L x 0.049" W). Seated height varies slightly: RT0805FRE07294KL (0.024"), 3-2176094-8 (0.026"), and RG2012N-2943-D-T5 (0.020"). These height variations are within typical PCB assembly tolerances and do not affect footprint compatibility.

Q: When should the RG2012N-2943-D-T5 be selected over the other substitutes?

A: The Susumu RG2012N-2943-D-T5 is the preferred choice for automotive applications, harsh environments, or designs requiring superior temperature stability. The AEC-Q200 qualification, anti-sulfur construction, and lowest temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C) provide enhanced reliability in demanding conditions.

Q: Are all substitutes ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. All three parts—RT0805FRE07294KL, 3-2176094-8, and RG2012N-2943-D-T5—carry ROHS3 compliance certification.

Q: What is the difference in tolerance between these parts, and does it matter for my application?

A: Tolerance specifications are ±1% (YAGEO), ±0.1% (TE Connectivity), and ±0.5% (Susumu). Tighter tolerance reduces resistance variation across production batches. Applications requiring precise voltage dividers, reference networks, or high-accuracy signal conditioning benefit from the ±0.1% TE Connectivity part. General-purpose applications typically accept ±1% tolerance.
