Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT0805FRE0797K6L is determined by the following criteria:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

• Resistance value: 97.6 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (minimum requirement)
• Composition: Thin Film

Allowable Variations:

• Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter than ±1%
• Power rating: May be equal to or higher than 0.125W
• Temperature coefficient: May be equal to or lower absolute value
• Certifications and compliance: May exceed original specifications

Three substitute parts meet these criteria and are grouped as follows:

Upgrade Category (Improved Tolerance): RT0805DRE0797K6L offers ±0.5% tolerance with identical power rating and thermal characteristics.

Upgrade Category (Enhanced Performance): 9-2176093-4 provides ±0.1% tolerance and 0.25W power rating with improved temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C.

Upgrade Category (Automotive Certification): ERA-6AEB9762V delivers ±0.1% tolerance, AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient while maintaining the original 0.125W power rating.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Standard Applications: RT0805DRE0797K6L is a direct upgrade from RT0805FRE0797K6L, offering improved tolerance (±0.5% vs ±1%) while maintaining identical power rating, package, and thermal specifications. Both parts are YAGEO products in active production status.

For Precision Circuit Requirements: 9-2176093-4 from TE Connectivity provides the tightest tolerance (±0.1%) and lowest temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) among available substitutes. The increased power rating (0.25W) provides additional thermal margin. This part is suitable for applications requiring enhanced accuracy and stability.
