Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RT1206CRE073K65L are qualified based on the following criteria:

• Resistance Value: Exact match at 3.65 kOhms
• Package Format: 1206 (3216 Metric) package required for mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Power Rating: Minimum 0.25W maintained
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C minimum
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected

Two substitute parts meet these criteria with enhanced tolerance specifications (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and improved temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206BRD073K65L (YAGEO): This substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.1%) and reduced temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) compared to the main part, while maintaining identical package dimensions and power rating. Both components are YAGEO products with active production status and ROHS3 compliance.

ERA-8AEB3651V (Panasonic Electronic Components): This substitute provides the same tolerance and temperature coefficient improvements as the RT1206BRD073K65L, with the additional qualification of AEC-Q200 automotive certification. Physical dimensions are within acceptable tolerance (3.20mm L × 1.60mm W versus 3.10mm L × 1.60mm W), and maximum seated height is 0.70mm versus 0.65mm. This part is suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD073K65L be used as a direct replacement for RT1206CRE073K65L?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (3.65 kOhms), package format (1206), power rating (0.25W), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The substitute offers superior tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C).

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between ERA-8AEB3651V and the main part?

A: ERA-8AEB3651V has a length of 3.20mm and maximum seated height of 0.70mm, compared to 3.10mm length and 0.65mm height for RT1206CRE073K65L. These differences remain within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility.

Q: Is ERA-8AEB3651V suitable for automotive applications?

A: Yes. ERA-8AEB3651V carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for automotive-grade circuit designs. The main part and RT1206BRD073K65L do not carry this certification.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RT1206CRE073K65L, RT1206BRD073K65L, and ERA-8AEB3651V are all ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What is the primary advantage of the substitute parts?

A: Both substitute parts reduce tolerance to ±0.1% and lower temperature coefficient to ±25ppm/°C, providing improved precision and stability compared to the ±0.25% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C coefficient of the main part.
