Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE072K94L is determined by the following critical parameters: resistance value (2.94 kOhms), package type (0805), composition (thin film), and compliance certifications (ROHS3). All substitute parts maintain identical resistance, package dimensions, and thin film construction.

Substitutes are grouped into two categories based on tolerance and power rating specifications:

Tolerance Upgrade Substitutes (±0.1% tolerance): RT0805BRD072K94L, ERA-6AEB2941V, and RG2012P-2941-B-T5 provide improved tolerance performance with ±0.1% specification and reduced temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C).

Power Rating Upgrade Substitute (0.25W rating): 5-2176092-7 from TE Connectivity maintains ±0.1% tolerance while increasing power dissipation capability to 0.25W (1/4W), suitable for higher current applications within the same package footprint.

All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 rating and operate across the same -55°C to 155°C temperature range.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Standard Applications: RT0805BRD072K94L provides direct substitution with improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and reduced temperature coefficient while maintaining identical power rating and package specifications. Both YAGEO parts are ROHS3 compliant with unlimited MSL rating.

For Higher Power Dissipation: 5-2176092-7 from TE Connectivity is suitable when circuit design requires 0.25W power capability within the same 0805 package footprint. This part maintains ±0.1% tolerance and ROHS3 compliance.

For Automotive Applications: ERA-6AEB2941V (Panasonic) and RG2012P-2941-B-T5 (Susumi) both carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. RG2012P-2941-B-T5 additionally features anti-sulfur construction. Both maintain ±0.1% tolerance, ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and ROHS3 compliance.

All substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry MSL Level 1 rating, and operate across the full -55°C to 155°C temperature range specified for the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT0805BRD072K94L directly replace RT0805FRE072K94L?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (2.94 kOhms), package (0805), power rating (0.125W), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). RT0805BRD072K94L provides improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C).

Q: What is the difference between the 0.125W and 0.25W power-rated parts?

A: Power rating determines maximum continuous power dissipation. The 5-2176092-7 (0.25W) accommodates higher current applications while maintaining the same 0805 package footprint. Selection depends on circuit current requirements and thermal management considerations.

Q: Are automotive-grade substitutes compatible with non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. ERA-6AEB2941V and RG2012P-2941-B-T5 carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification but are suitable for any application requiring their electrical specifications. Automotive-grade parts typically undergo more rigorous qualification testing.

Q: What packaging differences exist among substitutes?

A: RT0805FRE072K94L, RT0805BRD072K94L, 5-2176092-7, and RG2012P-2941-B-T5 are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. ERA-6AEB2941V is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel® format. Both formats are suitable for automated assembly; selection depends on procurement and handling requirements.

Q: Do all substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance?

A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the original RT0805FRE072K94L specifications.
