RT1206CRE075K6L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE075K6L is a 5.6 kOhms ±0.25% thin film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This surface mount device 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). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility can be maintained within the allowed parameter tolerances for this resistor category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RT1206CRE075K6L are qualified based on the following criteria:

Electrical Compatibility: Resistance value must be 5.6 kOhms. Tolerance may be equal to or tighter than ±0.25%. Power rating must be 0.25W minimum. Temperature coefficient must support the operating range of -55°C to 155°C.

Mechanical Compatibility: Package must be 1206 (3216 Metric). Physical dimensions and termination count must match or be compatible with the original footprint.

Regulatory Compliance: All substitute parts must maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating.

Composition: Thin film construction is maintained across all qualified substitutes.

The following parts meet these criteria:

• RT1206BRD075K6L (YAGEO): Tighter tolerance (±0.1%) with improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C)
• ERA-8AEB562V (Panasonic Electronic Components): Tighter tolerance (±0.1%) with automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C)

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206BRD075K6L (YAGEO): This part provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs ±0.25%) and improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C) while maintaining identical package, power rating, and compliance status. Selection is appropriate for applications requiring enhanced precision without automotive qualification requirements.

ERA-8AEB562V (Panasonic Electronic Components): This part offers the same electrical improvements as RT1206BRD075K6L with the addition of automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. Selection is appropriate for automotive applications or systems requiring automotive-grade component reliability. Physical dimensions are slightly larger (0.126" L vs 0.122" L; 0.028" H vs 0.026" H), which must be verified against PCB layout constraints.

Both substitute parts are active products with full ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory alignment with the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD075K6L be used as a direct replacement for RT1206CRE075K6L?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (5.6 kOhms), power rating (0.25W), package (1206), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). RT1206BRD075K6L provides tighter tolerance and lower temperature coefficient, making it functionally superior for the same footprint.

Q: What is the difference between RT1206BRD075K6L and ERA-8AEB562V?

A: Both parts have identical electrical specifications (5.6 kOhms, ±0.1%, 0.25W, ±25ppm/°C). ERA-8AEB562V includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and has slightly larger physical dimensions (0.126" L x 0.028" H vs 0.122" L x 0.026" H). Selection depends on automotive requirements and available PCB space.

Q: Are the physical dimensions of ERA-8AEB562V compatible with the original RT1206CRE075K6L footprint?

A: ERA-8AEB562V dimensions are slightly larger in length (0.126" vs 0.122") and height (0.028" vs 0.026"). PCB layout must be verified to confirm adequate clearance. The 1206 package designation applies to both parts, but dimensional tolerance must be checked against specific design constraints.

Q: Can these substitute parts be used interchangeably in the same circuit?

A: Yes, provided PCB layout accommodates the physical dimensions of the selected substitute. All three parts maintain the same electrical performance envelope for 5.6 kOhms resistance, 0.25W power rating, and -55°C to 155°C operating range. Tolerance and temperature coefficient improvements in substitute parts do not create compatibility issues.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to all three parts?

A: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity) rating. ERA-8AEB562V additionally carries automotive AEC-Q200 qualification.
