Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RT1206CRE0724RL is permissible with the RT1206BRD0724RL based on the following criteria:

Matching Parameters (Required for Substitution):

• Resistance value: 24 Ohms (identical)
• Package format: 1206 (3216 Metric) (identical)
• Power rating: 0.25W (identical)
• Composition: Thin Film (identical)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C (identical)
• Number of terminations: 2 (identical)
• RoHS3 compliance: Both parts compliant
• MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited) for both parts

Differing Parameters (Upgrade Characteristics):

• Tolerance: RT1206CRE0724RL ±0.25% vs. RT1206BRD0724RL ±0.1%
• Temperature coefficient: RT1206CRE0724RL ±50ppm/°C vs. RT1206BRD0724RL ±25ppm/°C
• Packaging format: RT1206CRE0724RL (Tape & Reel) vs. RT1206BRD0724RL (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel®)

The RT1206BRD0724RL represents an upgrade path with tighter tolerance and improved temperature stability while maintaining identical mechanical and electrical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RT1206CRE0724RL and RT1206BRD0724RL are Active products with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts should be based on application-specific tolerance and temperature stability requirements:

• RT1206CRE0724RL is suitable for applications where ±0.25% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient meet circuit specifications and where Tape & Reel packaging is preferred.

• RT1206BRD0724RL is suitable for applications requiring tighter tolerance control (±0.1%) and improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C), with Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® packaging availability.

Both parts are mechanically and electrically interchangeable within the specified parameter constraints. Packaging format selection depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management practices.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD0724RL directly replace RT1206CRE0724RL in production?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value, power rating, package dimensions, and operating temperature range. The RT1206BRD0724RL offers improved tolerance (±0.1% vs. ±0.25%) and temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs. ±50ppm/°C), making it a direct upgrade with no circuit redesign required.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel and Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® packaging?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous carrier tape wound on reels, suitable for high-volume automated assembly. Cut Tape & Digi-Reel® (CT) provides components on cut tape segments or alternative reel formats, offering flexibility for lower-volume or mixed-component assembly operations.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both RT1206CRE0724RL and RT1206BRD0724RL are ROHS3 Compliant with MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage and handling.

Q: What tolerance specification should I select for my application?

A: Select based on circuit accuracy requirements. The ±0.25% tolerance of RT1206CRE0724RL is suitable for general-purpose applications. The ±0.1% tolerance of RT1206BRD0724RL is required for precision circuits where tighter resistance value control is critical.

Q: Do these parts have identical physical dimensions?

A: Yes. Both parts are 1206 (3216 Metric) package format with identical dimensions: 0.122" L x 0.063" W (3.10mm x 1.60mm) and maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm). They are mechanically interchangeable on PCB layouts.
