RT1206CRE0727RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE0727RL is a 27 Ohm thin film chip resistor in 1206 package format, manufactured by YAGEO. This component is rated for 0.25W power dissipation with ±0.25% tolerance and operates across -55°C to 155°C. The part maintains Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent resistance values, power ratings, and package dimensions are maintained while allowing variations in tolerance specifications and temperature coefficients within acceptable engineering parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206CRE0727RL is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance Value: Must be 27 Ohms
• Package Format: Must be 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Power Rating: Must be 0.25W minimum
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating Temperature Range: Must cover -55°C ~ 155°C
• Compliance: RoHS3 and REACH status must be maintained

The RT1206BRD0727RL qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains all critical parameters while offering improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C). These enhancements represent performance upgrades without compromising compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RT1206CRE0727RL and RT1206BRD0727RL maintain Active product status with identical compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH Unaffected). The RT1206BRD0727RL represents an upgrade path, offering tighter tolerance specification (±0.1%) and improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C) while preserving all mechanical and thermal operating parameters. Selection between these parts depends on circuit tolerance requirements and long-term stability specifications rather than compatibility constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD0727RL replace RT1206CRE0727RL in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance values, power ratings, package dimensions, and operating temperature ranges. The RT1206BRD0727RL provides superior tolerance and temperature coefficient performance.

Q: Are there physical footprint differences between these parts?

A: No. Both components use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package with identical dimensions: 0.122" L x 0.063" W (3.10mm x 1.60mm) and maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm).

Q: What is the significance of tolerance differences?

A: The RT1206CRE0727RL specifies ±0.25% tolerance while RT1206BRD0727RL specifies ±0.1%. Tighter tolerance reduces resistance value variation across production batches, beneficial for precision analog circuits and matched resistor networks.

Q: Do these parts have different moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: No. Both parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity precautions are required during storage or handling.

Q: Are both parts available in Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Yes. Both RT1206CRE0727RL and RT1206BRD0727RL are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format suitable for automated assembly processes.
