RT0805FRE07787RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT0805FRE07787RL is a 787 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 with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part is currently active in production and ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for standard commercial and industrial applications requiring precision resistive elements.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when design requirements allow for relaxed tolerance specifications, increased power ratings, or enhanced environmental qualifications such as automotive AEC-Q200 certification. Substitute selection depends on circuit performance requirements and application constraints.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RT0805FRE07787RL is permissible when the following conditions are met:

Core Compatibility Requirements:

• Resistance value: 787 Ohms (exact match required)
• Package: 0805 (2012 Metric) form factor
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 or better

Allowable Parameter Variations:

• Tolerance may be equal to or tighter than ±1% (e.g., ±0.1% is acceptable)
• Power rating may be equal to or greater than 0.125W (e.g., 0.25W is acceptable)
• Temperature coefficient may be equal to or lower than ±50ppm/°C (e.g., ±25ppm/°C or ±10ppm/°C is acceptable)
• Additional certifications (AEC-Q200, anti-sulfur features) do not prevent substitution

Identified Substitute Categories:

• Direct substitutes: Functionally equivalent with improved tolerance specifications
• Upgrade substitutes: Enhanced performance characteristics with automotive qualification

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

2176092-8 (TE Connectivity RP73P Series): This direct substitute offers tighter tolerance (±0.1%) and increased power rating (0.25W) while maintaining identical package and operating temperature specifications. Selection is appropriate for applications requiring improved tolerance performance without automotive qualification requirements. Product status is active with established supply availability.

ERA-6AEB7870V (Panasonic ERA-6A Series): This upgrade substitute provides tighter tolerance (±0.1%), improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C), and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical dimensions and electrical operating range remain compatible. Selection is appropriate for automotive applications or designs requiring enhanced environmental reliability. Product status is active with high inventory availability.

RG2012N-7870-B-T5 (Susumu RG Series): This upgrade substitute offers the tightest tolerance (±0.1%), lowest temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C), anti-sulfur protection, and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical height is reduced (0.020" vs. 0.024"), which may provide layout advantages. Selection is appropriate for high-reliability automotive applications or designs requiring superior temperature stability. Product status is active.

All substitute parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can 2176092-8 be used as a direct replacement for RT0805FRE07787RL?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (787 Ohms), package (0805), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.1% vs. ±1%) and higher power rating (0.25W vs. 0.125W), making it functionally compatible for any application using the original part.

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

A: The TE Connectivity 2176092-8 provides higher power rating (0.25W) without automotive qualification. The Panasonic ERA-6AEB7870V maintains the original 0.125W power rating but includes AEC-Q200 automotive certification and improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs. ±50ppm/°C). Selection depends on power dissipation requirements and automotive application needs.

Q: Is the Susumu RG2012N-7870-B-T5 suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. The Susumu part carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, anti-sulfur protection, and the lowest temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C) among all substitutes. It is designed for high-reliability automotive environments and applications requiring superior temperature stability.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: All parts use the 0805 (2012 Metric) package with identical length (0.079") and width (0.049"). Height varies slightly: RT0805FRE07787RL and ERA-6AEB7870V are 0.024" maximum, 2176092-8 is 0.026" maximum, and RG2012N-7870-B-T5 is 0.020" maximum. These variations are within standard PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: Can substitutes be mixed in the same design?

A: Yes, provided the circuit design accommodates the tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications of each part. For critical applications, consistent part sourcing from a single manufacturer is recommended to ensure uniform performance characteristics across production batches.

Q: What is the significance of the ±0.1% tolerance in substitute parts?

A: Tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs. ±1%) reduces resistor value variation across the specified range, improving circuit accuracy and performance consistency. This is beneficial for precision analog circuits, measurement applications, and designs with tight impedance matching requirements.

Q: Are all parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RT0805FRE07787RL and all identified substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring compatibility with standard lead-free soldering processes and storage conditions.
