RT1206CRE072K2L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE072K2L is a 2.2 kOhms ±0.25% thin film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package format, rated for 0.25W power dissipation. Manufactured by YAGEO and currently in active production status, this component is widely used in precision analog circuits and signal conditioning applications. Substitute parts are identified based on matching resistance value, package format, power rating, and operating temperature range, with tolerance and temperature coefficient as secondary selection criteria.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206CRE072K2L is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Resistance Value: Must be 2.2 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package Format: Must be 1206 (3216 Metric) for PCB footprint compatibility
• Power Rating: Must be 0.25W minimum to meet thermal requirements
• Composition: Thin film construction required for precision applications
• Operating Temperature Range: Must span -55°C to 155°C minimum
• Compliance: RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating required

Tolerance and temperature coefficient are secondary parameters. Substitute parts with improved tolerance (±0.1% vs. ±0.25%) or lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs. ±50ppm/°C) represent performance upgrades and are fully compatible. Automotive AEC-Q200 certification and anti-sulfur features are optional enhancements that do not affect basic substitution compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three substitute parts are functionally compatible with the RT1206CRE072K2L based on matching resistance, package, power rating, and operating temperature specifications.

RT1206BRD072K2L (YAGEO): Direct manufacturer upgrade offering improved tolerance (±0.1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) while maintaining identical package and power specifications. Recommended for applications requiring tighter tolerance control within the same manufacturer ecosystem.

ERA-8AEB222V (Panasonic Electronic Components): Provides tolerance and temperature coefficient improvements with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Suitable for automotive and industrial applications requiring automotive-grade component certification.

RG3216P-2201-B-T5 (Susumu): Offers tolerance and temperature coefficient improvements combined with both AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and anti-sulfur feature. Recommended for harsh environment applications or automotive designs where sulfur contamination resistance is specified.

All substitute parts maintain active product status and full RoHS3 compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD072K2L replace RT1206CRE072K2L in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (2.2 kOhms), package format (1206), power rating (0.25W), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). RT1206BRD072K2L provides improved tolerance (±0.1% vs. ±0.25%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs. ±50ppm/°C), making it a direct upgrade.

Q: What is the difference between ERA-8AEB222V and RG3216P-2201-B-T5?

A: Both parts offer identical electrical specifications (2.2 kOhms, ±0.1% tolerance, ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient). The primary difference is that RG3216P-2201-B-T5 includes anti-sulfur feature in addition to AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. ERA-8AEB222V provides AEC-Q200 certification without anti-sulfur protection.

Q: Are there package dimension differences between substitute parts?

A: All parts use 1206 (3216 Metric) package format. Minor dimensional variations exist: RT1206CRE072K2L and RT1206BRD072K2L measure 0.122" L × 0.063" W (3.10mm × 1.60mm), while ERA-8AEB222V and RG3216P-2201-B-T5 measure 0.126" L × 0.063" W (3.20mm × 1.60mm). These variations remain within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Which substitute part is recommended for automotive applications?

A: Both ERA-8AEB222V and RG3216P-2201-B-T5 carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. RG3216P-2201-B-T5 is preferred for applications in corrosive or high-sulfur environments due to its anti-sulfur feature.

Q: Do all substitute parts maintain RoHS3 compliance?

A: Yes. All substitute parts (RT1206BRD072K2L, ERA-8AEB222V, and RG3216P-2201-B-T5) are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.
