Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE07169KL is determined by the following criteria:

  • Resistance value must be 169 kOhms
  • Package / Case must be 1206 (3216 Metric)
  • Power rating must be 0.25W (1/4W) or greater
  • Composition must be Thin Film
  • Operating temperature range must encompass -55°C ~ 155°C
  • RoHS3 compliance required
  • Tolerance may be equal to or tighter than ±1%
  • Temperature coefficient may be equal to or lower than ±50ppm/°C

The ERA-8AEB1693V qualifies as a substitute part based on these parameters. It maintains the same resistance value, package, power rating, and composition while offering improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and superior temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT1206FRE07169KL and ERA-8AEB1693V are Active status components with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity ratings, making them suitable for general industrial applications.

The ERA-8AEB1693V includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which provides additional reliability assurance for applications requiring automotive-grade components. This substitute offers tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), resulting in improved accuracy and stability across the operating temperature range.

Physical dimensions show minor variations: the ERA-8AEB1693V is 0.004" (0.10mm) longer and 0.002" (0.05mm) taller than the RT1206FRE07169KL. These dimensional differences remain within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility for standard 1206 footprints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB1693V replace RT1206FRE07169KL in all applications?

A: Yes, the ERA-8AEB1693V is electrically and mechanically compatible as a substitute. Both components share identical resistance value (169 kOhms), power rating (0.25W), package (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The ERA-8AEB1693V offers superior tolerance and temperature coefficient performance.

Q: What are the dimensional differences between these parts?

A: The ERA-8AEB1693V is 0.004" (0.10mm) longer and 0.002" (0.05mm) taller than the RT1206FRE07169KL. Both components fit standard 1206 footprints without layout modifications.

Q: Does the tighter tolerance of ERA-8AEB1693V affect circuit design?

A: The ERA-8AEB1693V tolerance of ±0.1% is tighter than the RT1206FRE07169KL tolerance of ±1%. This provides improved accuracy and may benefit precision circuits, but does not create incompatibility with designs specified for ±1% tolerance.

Q: What is the significance of AEC-Q200 qualification on the ERA-8AEB1693V?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry qualification standard. The ERA-8AEB1693V carries this certification, indicating it meets automotive reliability and quality requirements. This does not restrict its use in non-automotive applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes, both RT1206FRE07169KL and ERA-8AEB1693V are ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1).
