RT1206CRE07487RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE07487RL is a 487 Ohm ±0.25% thin film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This component is rated for 0.25W power dissipation with an operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part is currently active in production with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when they maintain the same resistance value, package format, power rating, and operating temperature specifications while potentially offering improved tolerance, temperature coefficient, or automotive qualification.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RT1206CRE07487RL are qualified based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 487 Ohms
• Identical package format: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Identical power rating: 0.25W
• Identical operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• Identical composition: Thin Film
• Identical termination count: 2
• Compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements

The identified substitutes meet or exceed the tolerance specification (±0.25%) and maintain compatibility with the original part's electrical and mechanical requirements. Substitutes may offer improved temperature coefficient performance or automotive qualification (AEC-Q200) without compromising the primary application requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RT1206CRE07487RL can be directly substituted with ERA-8AEB4870V or RG3216P-4870-B-T5 based on identical electrical specifications and package compatibility. Both substitute parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

ERA-8AEB4870V (Panasonic) offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and reduced temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical dimensions are 3.20mm x 1.60mm with maximum seated height of 0.70mm.

RG3216P-4870-B-T5 (Susumu) provides the same tolerance and temperature coefficient improvements as the Panasonic part, with additional anti-sulfur feature and AEC-Q200 qualification. Physical dimensions are 3.20mm x 1.60mm with a lower maximum seated height of 0.50mm.

Selection between substitutes depends on PCB layout constraints (height clearance), supply chain availability, and whether automotive qualification is required for the application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB4870V replace RT1206CRE07487RL in any application?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (487 Ohms), power rating (0.25W), package format (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The Panasonic part offers superior tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: ERA-8AEB4870V and RG3216P-4870-B-T5 have identical electrical specifications (487 Ohms, ±0.1%, ±25ppm/°C). The primary differences are physical dimensions and features. RG3216P-4870-B-T5 has a lower maximum seated height (0.50mm versus 0.70mm) and includes anti-sulfur protection.

Q: Are the substitute parts compatible with the original PCB layout?

A: The 1206 package format is identical across all three parts. However, verify PCB footprint dimensions. The original part measures 3.10mm x 1.60mm, while substitutes measure 3.20mm x 1.60mm. Height differences (0.65mm original, 0.70mm Panasonic, 0.50mm Susumu) may affect clearance in space-constrained designs.

Q: Do the substitute parts require different soldering profiles?

A: All three parts are thin film 1206 resistors with identical termination count (2) and MSL rating (1). Standard SMD soldering processes apply to all variants.

Q: Which substitute should I select for automotive applications?

A: Both ERA-8AEB4870V and RG3216P-4870-B-T5 carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The original RT1206CRE07487RL does not have automotive qualification. Select based on height constraints and anti-sulfur requirement.
