Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RT1206DRE07487RL are qualified based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 487 Ohms
• Equal or tighter tolerance: ±0.5% or better
• Identical power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Identical package: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Identical composition: Thin Film
• Compatible operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum
• ROHS3 compliance maintained

Two substitute parts meet these requirements with enhanced specifications:

ERA-8AEB4870V (Panasonic Electronic Components) – Upgrade with tighter tolerance (±0.1%) and automotive AEC-Q200 qualification.

RG3216P-4870-B-T5 (Susumu) – Upgrade with tighter tolerance (±0.1%), automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, and anti-sulfur feature.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical core electrical specifications (487 Ohms, 0.25W, 1206 package). Selection between them depends on application requirements:

RT1206DRE07487RL – Standard industrial applications where ±0.5% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient are acceptable.

ERA-8AEB4870V – Applications requiring tighter tolerance (±0.1%) and automotive qualification (AEC-Q200). Panasonic manufacturing provides automotive-grade reliability.

RG3216P-4870-B-T5 – Automotive and harsh environment applications requiring AEC-Q200 qualification, tighter tolerance (±0.1%), anti-sulfur protection, and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C). Susumu's anti-sulfur feature provides enhanced corrosion resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB4870V or RG3216P-4870-B-T5 directly replace RT1206DRE07487RL?

A: Yes. Both substitute parts maintain identical resistance (487 Ohms), power rating (0.25W), package (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The substitute parts offer tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs ±0.5%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C), making them functionally compatible and electrically superior.

Q: What is the difference between the two substitute parts?

A: Both ERA-8AEB4870V and RG3216P-4870-B-T5 share identical electrical specifications and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. RG3216P-4870-B-T5 includes anti-sulfur protection and has a lower maximum seated height (0.020" vs 0.028"), which may be relevant for space-constrained applications.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RT1206DRE07487RL, ERA-8AEB4870V, and RG3216P-4870-B-T5 are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.

Q: Which part should I select for automotive applications?

A: ERA-8AEB4870V or RG3216P-4870-B-T5 are recommended for automotive applications due to AEC-Q200 qualification. RG3216P-4870-B-T5 provides additional anti-sulfur protection for enhanced environmental resistance.

Q: Are there mechanical dimension differences?

A: Minor differences exist. RT1206DRE07487RL measures 0.122" L × 0.063" W with 0.026" max height. ERA-8AEB4870V measures 0.126" L × 0.063" W with 0.028" max height. RG3216P-4870-B-T5 measures 0.126" L × 0.063" W with 0.020" max height. All fit the 1206 (3216 Metric) package specification and are mechanically compatible in standard PCB layouts.
