Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE07976RL is determined by the following criteria:

Mandatory Parameters (Must Match):

• Resistance value: 976 Ohms
• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Composition: Thin Film
• Physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W (2.00mm x 1.25mm)
• Number of terminations: 2
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C

Allowable Variations:

• Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter than ±1%
• Power rating: May be equal to or greater than 0.125W
• Temperature coefficient: May be equal to or lower in absolute value
• RoHS and REACH compliance: Must maintain or exceed current status

Two substitute parts meet these criteria and are listed below.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

1-2176092-7 (TE Connectivity Passive Product)

This substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and increased power rating (0.25W versus 0.125W) within the same 0805 package footprint. The lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) provides enhanced stability. The maximum seated height is 0.026" (0.65mm), which is 0.002" higher than the original part. This part is suitable for applications requiring tighter resistance tolerance and higher power dissipation capability. ROHS3 compliance is maintained.

ERA-6AEB9760V (Panasonic Electronic Components)

This substitute maintains the original 0.125W power rating and 0.024" seated height while providing tighter tolerance (±0.1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C). The part carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for automotive and high-reliability applications. ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status are maintained. This part is functionally equivalent with enhanced performance characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I use 1-2176092-7 in place of RT0805FRE07976RL without circuit redesign?

A: Yes. The 1-2176092-7 maintains the same resistance value, package footprint, and operating temperature range. The increased power rating (0.25W) and tighter tolerance (±0.1%) are backward-compatible improvements. The 0.002" height difference (0.026" versus 0.024") is within typical PCB assembly tolerances for 0805 components.

Q: What is the advantage of ERA-6AEB9760V over the original RT0805FRE07976RL?

A: The ERA-6AEB9760V provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%), lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical dimensions and power rating remain identical, ensuring direct substitution with improved performance stability.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. RT0805FRE07976RL, 1-2176092-7, and ERA-6AEB9760V are all ROHS3 compliant.

Q: Can I use the higher power-rated 1-2176092-7 in a circuit designed for 0.125W?

A: Yes. A higher power rating does not create compatibility issues. The 0.25W rating of 1-2176092-7 simply provides additional thermal margin and is suitable for the same circuit application.

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

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

Q: Are there any height clearance concerns when substituting these parts?

A: The 1-2176092-7 has a maximum seated height of 0.026" compared to 0.024" for the original and ERA-6AEB9760V. This 0.002" difference is negligible for most PCB designs but should be verified if height-constrained applications are involved.
