RT1206CRE07620RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE07620RL is a 620 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 resistance values, package formats, power ratings, and operating temperature ranges are maintained while potentially offering improved tolerance specifications or enhanced reliability certifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206CRE07620RL is determined by the following criteria:

• Resistance value must equal 620 Ohms
• Package format must be 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Power rating must be 0.25W minimum
• Operating temperature range must encompass -55°C to 155°C
• Composition must be thin film
• RoHS3 compliance required
• MSL rating must be 1 or equivalent

The ERA-8AEB621V qualifies as a substitute part. While it offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and enhanced temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), it maintains all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. The addition of AEC-Q200 automotive qualification provides enhanced reliability documentation without altering core electrical characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT1206CRE07620RL and ERA-8AEB621V maintain Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected designation. Selection between these parts should be based on application requirements:

The RT1206CRE07620RL is suitable for general-purpose applications where standard tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications are acceptable.

The ERA-8AEB621V is appropriate for applications requiring tighter tolerance control (±0.1%) or enhanced reliability documentation through AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) provides superior stability across the operating temperature range.

Both parts are available in Tape & Reel packaging and share identical termination configuration (2 terminations) and moisture sensitivity characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB621V directly replace RT1206CRE07620RL in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain identical resistance values, power ratings, package formats, and operating temperature ranges. The ERA-8AEB621V offers improved tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications, making it functionally compatible for direct substitution.

Q: What is the significance of the ±0.1% tolerance improvement in ERA-8AEB621V?

A: The ERA-8AEB621V tolerance of ±0.1% is tighter than the RT1206CRE07620RL tolerance of ±0.25%. This provides more precise resistance values, beneficial in applications requiring strict circuit parameter control.

Q: Does AEC-Q200 qualification affect electrical performance?

A: AEC-Q200 is a reliability and qualification standard for automotive components. It does not alter the electrical characteristics of the ERA-8AEB621V but provides documented reliability testing and quality assurance suitable for automotive and high-reliability applications.

Q: Are the physical dimensions compatible between these parts?

A: Both parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package. The RT1206CRE07620RL measures 0.122" L × 0.063" W with 0.026" maximum seated height. The ERA-8AEB621V measures 0.126" L × 0.063" W with 0.028" maximum seated height. These minor dimensional variations remain within standard 1206 package tolerances and are compatible with standard PCB footprints.

Q: What is the difference in temperature coefficient between these parts?

A: The RT1206CRE07620RL has a temperature coefficient of ±50ppm/°C, while the ERA-8AEB621V has ±25ppm/°C. Lower temperature coefficient values indicate better resistance stability across temperature variations, providing superior performance in temperature-sensitive applications.
