RT1206CRE0782K5L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206CRE0782K5L is a 1206 (3216 Metric) thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO, rated at 82.5 kOhms with ±0.25% tolerance and 0.25W power dissipation. This component is actively produced and widely used in precision analog circuits, measurement equipment, and industrial applications requiring stable resistance values across extended temperature ranges.

Substitute parts become necessary when the primary manufacturer experiences supply constraints, when design requirements demand enhanced performance specifications, or when automotive-grade reliability certifications are required for specific applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206CRE0782K5L is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Resistance value: 82.5 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package type: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum coverage
• RoHS3 compliance

The identified substitute parts meet all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. Tolerance specifications may be equal or superior (tighter) to the original part. Temperature coefficient values may be equal or superior (lower) to the original specification. Physical dimensions remain within acceptable PCB assembly tolerances for the 1206 package class.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts provide superior tolerance specifications (±0.1% versus ±0.25%) and improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) compared to the original RT1206CRE0782K5L.

The ERA-8AEB8252V (Panasonic) is suitable for general precision applications requiring AEC-Q200 automotive-grade reliability. This part maintains full compatibility with the original footprint and electrical specifications while offering enhanced performance characteristics.

The RG3216P-8252-B-T5 (Susumu) provides additional anti-sulfur protection and AEC-Q200 certification, making it appropriate for automotive and harsh environment applications where corrosion resistance is a design consideration. The reduced maximum seated height (0.020" versus 0.026") may provide marginal advantages in space-constrained PCB layouts.

All three parts are actively produced and maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 ratings, ensuring consistent supply and handling characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB8252V or RG3216P-8252-B-T5 be used as direct replacements for RT1206CRE0782K5L?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts share identical resistance values, power ratings, package dimensions, and operating temperature ranges. The superior tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications of the substitute parts ensure functional compatibility and performance enhancement in existing circuit designs.

Q: What is the significance of the ±0.1% tolerance improvement in the substitute parts?

A: The substitute parts maintain resistance values within ±0.1% of the nominal 82.5 kOhms specification, compared to ±0.25% for the original part. This tighter tolerance reduces circuit calibration drift and improves measurement accuracy in precision analog applications.

Q: Are the physical dimensions of substitute parts identical to the original?

A: The substitute parts use the same 1206 (3216 Metric) package footprint. Dimensional variations exist within acceptable tolerances: the original part measures 0.122" L × 0.063" W, while substitute parts measure 0.126" L × 0.063" W. These differences remain within standard PCB assembly tolerances and do not affect placement or soldering processes. Maximum seated heights vary slightly (0.026" original, 0.028" Panasonic, 0.020" Susumu) but remain compatible with standard component clearance specifications.

Q: What does AEC-Q200 certification indicate?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive electronics qualification standard. Both substitute parts carry this certification, indicating they meet automotive industry reliability, temperature cycling, and performance requirements. This certification is not specified for the original RT1206CRE0782K5L.

Q: When should the anti-sulfur feature of RG3216P-8252-B-T5 be considered?

A: Anti-sulfur protection is relevant for applications in environments with hydrogen sulfide exposure or high-sulfur industrial atmospheres. This feature prevents corrosion of component terminations and internal structures. For standard indoor or controlled environment applications, this feature provides no functional advantage.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The original RT1206CRE0782K5L and both substitute parts (ERA-8AEB8252V and RG3216P-8252-B-T5) are ROHS3 compliant and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring consistent handling and storage requirements.
