RT1206CRE07523KL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE07523KL is a 523 kOhms ±0.25% thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in the 1206 (3216 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.25W power dissipation and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility can be maintained within the specified parameter tolerances and package dimensions.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206CRE07523KL is determined by the following critical parameters:

  • Resistance value must equal 523 kOhms
  • Package format must be 1206 (3216 Metric) to ensure PCB footprint compatibility
  • Power rating must be minimum 0.25W
  • Composition must be thin film to maintain electrical characteristics
  • Operating temperature range must encompass or equal -55°C to 155°C
  • Tolerance must be equal to or tighter than ±0.25%
  • RoHS3 compliance must be maintained

The identified substitute ERA-8AEB5233V meets all substitution criteria with improved tolerance specification (±0.1%) and enhanced temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ERA-8AEB5233V substitute provides improved electrical performance characteristics while maintaining full compatibility with the RT1206CRE07523KL footprint and thermal operating range. The substitute features tighter tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and superior temperature coefficient stability (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C). Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating. The ERA-8AEB5233V includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which provides additional reliability assurance for applications requiring automotive-grade components. Dimensional variations between the two parts (length difference of 0.004" and height difference of 0.002") remain within standard PCB design tolerances for 1206 package footprints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB5233V be used as a direct replacement for RT1206CRE07523KL?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value (523 kOhms), power rating (0.25W), package format (1206), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The substitute features improved tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications.

Q: Are there PCB layout considerations when substituting ERA-8AEB5233V for RT1206CRE07523KL?

A: The ERA-8AEB5233V has slightly larger dimensions (0.126" L x 0.063" W versus 0.122" L x 0.063" W) and greater seated height (0.028" versus 0.026"). These variations are within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not require PCB footprint modification.

Q: Do both parts meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. Both RT1206CRE07523KL and ERA-8AEB5233V are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and classified as EAR99 for export control purposes. Both maintain MSL 1 (unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: What is the primary advantage of selecting ERA-8AEB5233V?

A: The ERA-8AEB5233V provides tighter tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and improved temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), resulting in enhanced circuit accuracy and stability across the operating temperature range.

Q: Are packaging formats identical between the two parts?

A: Both components are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging format in the 1206 (3216 Metric) package. Mechanical compatibility is maintained for automated assembly processes.
