RT1206DRE07976RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206DRE07976RL is a 976 Ohm thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in the 1206 (3216 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.25W (1/4W) power dissipation with ±0.5% tolerance and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when they maintain electrical equivalence in resistance value, power rating, and package format while meeting or exceeding the performance specifications of the original component.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206DRE07976RL is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 976 Ohms (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum
• Package format: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum coverage
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 or equivalent

The ERA-8AEB9760V qualifies as a direct substitute because it matches all mandatory electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), representing enhanced performance characteristics within the same package and power rating.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT1206DRE07976RL and ERA-8AEB9760V are Active status components with full ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. The ERA-8AEB9760V carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which provides additional reliability assurance for applications requiring automotive-grade components.

Selection between these parts should be based on application requirements. The RT1206DRE07976RL is suitable for general industrial and commercial applications. The ERA-8AEB9760V is appropriate for automotive applications or designs requiring tighter tolerance control and lower temperature coefficient performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB9760V replace RT1206DRE07976RL in any application?

A: Yes, the ERA-8AEB9760V meets all electrical and mechanical substitution criteria. The improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.5%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) make it suitable for applications where the original part is specified.

Q: Are there package compatibility concerns between these parts?

A: Both parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package format with identical termination count (2). Physical dimensions are within acceptable PCB layout tolerances for standard 1206 footprints.

Q: What is the significance of the AEC-Q200 rating on the ERA-8AEB9760V?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry qualification standard. This rating indicates the part has undergone additional reliability testing and is approved for automotive applications. It is not required for non-automotive use.

Q: Do both parts have the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes, both parts operate across -55°C to 155°C. The ERA-8AEB9760V maintains a lower temperature coefficient, resulting in better resistance stability across this range.

Q: Are there any moisture sensitivity differences?

A: Both parts have MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage or handling.
