RT1206CRE0756R2L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE0756R2L is a 56.2 Ohm thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in the 1206 (3216 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.25W power dissipation with ±0.25% tolerance and operates across the -55°C to 155°C temperature range. The part maintains Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance, mechanical compatibility, and regulatory compliance can be maintained while potentially offering improved tolerance specifications or automotive-grade certifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RT1206CRE0756R2L are qualified based on the following criteria:

Mandatory Compatibility Parameters:

  • Resistance value: 56.2 Ohms (exact match required)
  • Power rating: 0.25W minimum
  • Package format: 1206 (3216 Metric)
  • Composition: Thin Film
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum
  • RoHS3 compliance
  • MSL rating: 1 or better

Allowable Variations:

  • Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter than ±0.25%
  • Temperature coefficient: May be equal to or lower than ±50ppm/°C
  • Physical dimensions: Minor variations within package specification tolerance
  • Certifications: May include additional automotive or industrial ratings

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: RT1206BRD0756R2L (YAGEO) and ERA-8AEB56R2V (Panasonic Electronic Components). Both maintain the same resistance, power rating, and package specifications while offering improved tolerance (±0.1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206BRD0756R2L (YAGEO): This substitute offers improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and reduced temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) while maintaining identical package, power rating, and operating temperature range. Both parts are manufactured by YAGEO and carry ROHS3 compliance. Selection of this part is appropriate when tighter tolerance performance is required without introducing multi-source supply chain considerations.

ERA-8AEB56R2V (Panasonic Electronic Components): This substitute provides the same tolerance and temperature coefficient improvements as the YAGEO alternative while adding AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical dimensions show minor variation (0.126" L x 0.063" W versus 0.122" L x 0.063" W; height 0.028" versus 0.026"), remaining within standard 1206 package tolerance. Selection of this part is appropriate for automotive applications or when AEC-Q200 certification is a design requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD0756R2L be used as a direct replacement for RT1206CRE0756R2L?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (56.2 Ohms), power rating (0.25W), package format (1206), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), making it functionally superior for direct substitution.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between ERA-8AEB56R2V and the main part?

A: ERA-8AEB56R2V has slightly larger dimensions: length 0.126" (3.20mm) versus 0.122" (3.10mm) and height 0.028" (0.70mm) versus 0.026" (0.65mm). Both conform to the 1206 (3216 Metric) package specification. PCB layout verification is recommended to confirm clearance compatibility in space-constrained applications.

Q: Is ERA-8AEB56R2V suitable for non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. AEC-Q200 certification indicates automotive-grade reliability but does not restrict use in non-automotive circuits. The part meets all standard electrical and compliance requirements for general industrial and commercial applications.

Q: What tolerance specification should be selected for precision circuit applications?

A: Both substitute parts offer ±0.1% tolerance, which is tighter than the main part's ±0.25%. Selection between RT1206BRD0756R2L and ERA-8AEB56R2V depends on whether AEC-Q200 automotive certification is required and whether the minor physical dimension variation of the Panasonic part accommodates PCB layout constraints.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RT1206CRE0756R2L, RT1206BRD0756R2L, and ERA-8AEB56R2V all carry ROHS3 compliance certification with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity rating).
