Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206BRE0716RL is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 16 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±0.1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum
• Package: 1206 (3216 Metric) form factor
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum
• Compliance: ROHS3 and REACH status alignment

The RT1206BRD0716RL meets all substitution criteria. Both parts share identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, package dimensions, and compliance certifications. The primary difference is the temperature coefficient specification, which does not affect substitution eligibility as both values fall within acceptable thin film resistor performance parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT1206BRE0716RL and RT1206BRD0716RL are Active products from YAGEO's RT series with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific temperature stability requirements. The RT1206BRD0716RL offers improved temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), making it suitable for applications requiring tighter thermal stability. Both components are mechanically and electrically interchangeable within the 1206 package footprint and meet identical compliance requirements for industrial and commercial applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD0716RL replace RT1206BRE0716RL in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically compatible. They share identical resistance values, tolerance, power ratings, package dimensions, and compliance certifications. Direct substitution is permissible without PCB layout modifications.

Q: What is the significance of the temperature coefficient difference?

A: The temperature coefficient indicates resistance drift over the operating temperature range. RT1206BRD0716RL exhibits ±25ppm/°C compared to ±50ppm/°C for RT1206BRE0716RL. For applications operating across the full -55°C to 155°C range, the lower coefficient provides improved resistance stability. For applications with limited temperature variation, both specifications are functionally equivalent.

Q: Are both parts suitable for high-reliability applications?

A: Both components meet ROHS3 compliance and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, indicating suitability for standard industrial and commercial environments. Compliance certifications are identical between the two parts.

Q: Do these parts require different handling or storage procedures?

A: No. Both parts carry identical Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) ratings and require standard component storage practices. No differential handling is required.

Q: Is the 1206 package footprint identical for both parts?

A: Yes. Both parts are specified as 1206 (3216 Metric) with identical dimensions: 0.122" L x 0.063" W (3.10mm x 1.60mm) and maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm). PCB footprints are directly interchangeable.
