RT0805FRE076R2L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0805FRE076R2L is a 6.2 Ohms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 0805 (2012 Metric) package format, rated for 0.125W (1/8W) power dissipation. Manufactured by YAGEO under the RT series, this component is actively produced and widely used in precision analog circuits, signal conditioning, and measurement applications where tolerance and temperature stability are critical. Alternative equivalent parts may be required due to inventory constraints, design upgrades for improved tolerance specifications, or supply chain optimization.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE076R2L is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Resistance Value: Must be exactly 6.2 Ohms
  • Package Format: Must be 0805 (2012 Metric) to ensure PCB footprint compatibility
  • Power Rating: Must be ≥0.125W (1/8W)
  • Composition: Thin film construction for temperature stability and tolerance performance
  • Temperature Coefficient: ±50ppm/°C or better
  • Operating Temperature Range: Must cover -55°C ~ 155°C minimum
  • Compliance: ROHS3 compliant, MSL 1 rating

The RT0805DRE076R2L qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains identical resistance, package, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating range while offering improved tolerance specification (±0.5% versus ±1%). This represents an upgrade path for applications requiring tighter tolerance control without any mechanical or thermal compromises.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT0805FRE076R2L and RT0805DRE076R2L are active production components from YAGEO's RT thin film resistor series, fully compliant with ROHS3 regulations and unaffected by REACH restrictions. Selection between these parts should be based on circuit tolerance requirements:

  • RT0805FRE076R2L: Suitable for general-purpose applications where ±1% tolerance meets design specifications and cost optimization is prioritized.
  • RT0805DRE076R2L: Recommended for precision measurement circuits, signal conditioning paths, and applications where ±0.5% tolerance improves overall system accuracy without additional design modifications.

Both components share identical mechanical footprints, thermal characteristics, and environmental operating ranges, enabling direct substitution at the PCB assembly level. MSL 1 rating ensures unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT0805DRE076R2L replace RT0805FRE076R2L in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RT0805DRE076R2L is a direct mechanical and electrical substitute. It occupies the same 0805 footprint, dissipates identical power levels, and operates across the same temperature range. The improved ±0.5% tolerance is a performance upgrade with no compatibility concerns.

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

A: No. Both components use identical 0805 (2012 Metric) package dimensions: 2.00mm length × 1.25mm width × 0.60mm maximum height. PCB footprints, trace routing, and assembly processes remain unchanged.

Q: What is the significance of the tolerance difference between ±1% and ±0.5%?

A: Tolerance defines the maximum deviation from the nominal 6.2 Ohm value. The ±1% part allows ±0.062 Ohm variation (6.138–6.262 Ohms), while the ±0.5% part allows ±0.031 Ohm variation (6.169–6.231 Ohms). Tighter tolerance improves circuit accuracy in precision applications.

Q: Do both parts have the same moisture sensitivity rating?

A: Yes. Both are MSL 1 rated, indicating unlimited shelf life without moisture baking requirements under standard storage conditions (≤30°C, ≤85% relative humidity).

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RT0805FRE076R2L and RT0805DRE076R2L are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronics manufacturing.
