RT1206CRE07360RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE07360RL is a 360 Ohm thin film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This surface mount device delivers 0.25W power rating with ±0.25% tolerance and operates across -55°C to 155°C. The part is Active status and ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent resistance values, package dimensions, power ratings, and operating temperature ranges align with application requirements while potentially offering improved tolerance specifications or automotive-grade certifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility is determined by the following criteria:

  • Resistance Value: Must be 360 Ohms
  • Package Compatibility: Must be 1206 (3216 Metric) or mechanically compatible footprint
  • Power Rating: Must support minimum 0.25W
  • Operating Temperature Range: Must cover -55°C to 155°C
  • Composition: Thin film construction
  • Compliance: ROHS3 and REACH requirements

The identified substitutes meet all mandatory parameters. Tolerance improvements (±0.1% vs ±0.25%) and temperature coefficient reductions (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C) represent performance enhancements rather than functional requirements for substitution.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206BRD07360RL (YAGEO): Direct upgrade within the same manufacturer series. Maintains identical package, power rating, and operating temperature range. Improves tolerance to ±0.1% and reduces temperature coefficient to ±25ppm/°C. Suitable for applications requiring tighter tolerance specifications without automotive qualification requirements.

ERA-8AEB361V (Panasonic): Functionally equivalent with identical electrical specifications to RT1206BRD07360RL. Includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Dimensions vary slightly (0.126" L vs 0.122" L; 0.028" H vs 0.026" H maximum seated height). Select for automotive applications or when Panasonic component qualification is mandated.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD07360RL directly replace RT1206CRE07360RL on existing PCBs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical 1206 (3216 Metric) package dimensions and footprint. The substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.1% vs ±0.25%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C) with no layout modifications required.

Q: What are the dimensional differences between ERA-8AEB361V and the YAGEO parts?

A: ERA-8AEB361V length is 0.126" (3.20mm) versus 0.122" (3.10mm) for YAGEO parts. Maximum seated height is 0.028" (0.70mm) versus 0.026" (0.65mm). These variations remain within standard 1206 package tolerances and are compatible with standard 1206 footprints.

Q: When should ERA-8AEB361V be selected over RT1206BRD07360RL?

A: Select ERA-8AEB361V when AEC-Q200 automotive qualification is required or specified in design documentation. Both parts deliver identical electrical performance; the distinction is automotive-grade certification.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RT1206CRE07360RL, RT1206BRD07360RL, and ERA-8AEB361V are all ROHS3 compliant with REACH Unaffected status.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity rating for these parts?

A: All three parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.
