RT1206CRE07787RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE07787RL is a 787 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 they maintain identical electrical specifications (resistance value, power rating, package format) while offering enhanced performance characteristics or specialized certifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ERA-8AEB7870V qualifies as a direct substitute for the RT1206CRE07787RL based on the following alignment of critical parameters:

  • Identical resistance value: 787 Ohms
  • Identical power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
  • Identical package format: 1206 (3216 Metric)
  • Identical composition: Thin Film
  • Identical operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C
  • Identical RoHS3 compliance status
  • Identical MSL rating: 1 (Unlimited)

The ERA-8AEB7870V provides enhanced tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), along with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. These represent performance improvements rather than deviations from the original specification.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ERA-8AEB7870V represents a direct functional equivalent with enhanced specifications. Selection between the RT1206CRE07787RL and ERA-8AEB7870V depends on application requirements:

The RT1206CRE07787RL is suitable for general-purpose applications where standard tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications meet design requirements.

The ERA-8AEB7870V is appropriate for applications requiring tighter tolerance control (±0.1%), improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C), or automotive-grade reliability certification (AEC-Q200). Both components maintain identical package footprint, power rating, and operating temperature range, enabling direct PCB-level substitution.

Both parts maintain Active product status and full ROHS3 compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB7870V replace RT1206CRE07787RL in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value (787 Ohms), power rating (0.25W), package format (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The ERA-8AEB7870V provides improved tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications, making it a direct functional substitute with enhanced performance characteristics.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences?

A: The RT1206CRE07787RL measures 0.122" L × 0.063" W (3.10mm × 1.60mm) with maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm). The ERA-8AEB7870V measures 0.126" L × 0.063" W (3.20mm × 1.60mm) with maximum seated height of 0.028" (0.70mm). These minor dimensional variations remain within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility.

Q: What is the significance of AEC-Q200 certification on the ERA-8AEB7870V?

A: AEC-Q200 certification indicates the component meets automotive industry reliability and quality standards. This certification is relevant for applications requiring automotive-grade component qualification. Standard applications without automotive requirements can use either component.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both RT1206CRE07787RL and ERA-8AEB7870V maintain ROHS3 compliance status with REACH Unaffected designation.

Q: What is the difference in tolerance specifications?

A: The RT1206CRE07787RL provides ±0.25% tolerance, while the ERA-8AEB7870V provides ±0.1% tolerance. The tighter tolerance of the ERA-8AEB7870V results in more precise resistance values, beneficial for applications requiring strict circuit parameter control.
