Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE071K3L is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Resistance Value: Must be 1.3 kOhms
• Package Format: Must be 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Power Rating: Must be 0.25W (1/4W) minimum
• Composition: Must be Thin Film
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -55°C ~ 155°C
• Termination Count: Must be 2 terminations
• RoHS Compliance: Must be ROHS3 compliant

Tolerance, temperature coefficient, and specific manufacturer features (such as automotive AEC-Q200 certification or anti-sulfur properties) represent performance enhancements and do not disqualify substitution. All identified substitute parts meet or exceed the core electrical and mechanical requirements of the main part.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206DRE071K3L (YAGEO): This substitute offers improved tolerance (±0.5% versus ±1%) while maintaining identical package dimensions, power rating, and operating temperature range. Both parts are YAGEO products with active production status and unlimited MSL rating. Selection is appropriate for applications requiring tighter resistance tolerance without additional certification requirements.

ERA-8AEB132V (Panasonic): This substitute provides the highest tolerance specification (±0.1%) and includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The temperature coefficient is improved to ±25ppm/°C. Package dimensions are slightly larger (3.20mm x 1.60mm versus 3.10mm x 1.60mm) with marginally increased height (0.028" versus 0.026"). Selection is appropriate for automotive applications or where superior tolerance and temperature stability are required.

RG3216P-1301-D-T5 (Susumu): This substitute combines ±0.5% tolerance with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and anti-sulfur properties. Package dimensions match the ERA-8AEB132V (3.20mm x 1.60mm) with the lowest seated height (0.020"). Temperature coefficient is ±25ppm/°C. Selection is appropriate for automotive or harsh environment applications where anti-sulfur protection is beneficial.

All substitute parts maintain active production status, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. Selection among substitutes depends on application-specific requirements for tolerance, automotive certification, and environmental protection rather than core electrical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206DRE071K3L replace RT1206FRE071K3L in any application?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (1.3 kOhms), package format (1206), power rating (0.25W), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The RT1206DRE071K3L offers improved tolerance (±0.5% versus ±1%), making it suitable for all applications where the original part functions.

Q: What are the physical differences between substitute parts?

A: RT1206FRE071K3L and RT1206DRE071K3L have identical dimensions (3.10mm x 1.60mm length x width, 0.65mm max height). ERA-8AEB132V and RG3216P-1301-D-T5 are slightly larger (3.20mm x 1.60mm). RG3216P-1301-D-T5 has the lowest profile at 0.50mm height. These dimensional variations are within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility in most applications.

Q: Are automotive-qualified parts (AEC-Q200) backward compatible with non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. AEC-Q200 certification represents additional qualification testing and reliability assurance. Parts meeting automotive standards function in non-automotive applications. ERA-8AEB132V and RG3216P-1301-D-T5 are suitable for any application where RT1206FRE071K3L is specified.

Q: What is the significance of anti-sulfur properties in RG3216P-1301-D-T5?

A: Anti-sulfur protection prevents degradation in environments with hydrogen sulfide exposure. This feature does not affect performance in standard industrial or consumer applications. Selection of RG3216P-1301-D-T5 is appropriate only when anti-sulfur protection is a documented requirement.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably on the same PCB assembly?

A: Yes, with consideration for physical dimensions. RT1206FRE071K3L and RT1206DRE071K3L are direct footprint matches. ERA-8AEB132V and RG3216P-1301-D-T5 have slightly larger length (3.20mm versus 3.10mm) but fit standard 1206 pads. Verify PCB layout clearances if space constraints exist.

Q: Which substitute offers the best overall performance?

A: Selection depends on application requirements. ERA-8AEB132V provides the tightest tolerance (±0.1%) and lowest temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) with automotive qualification. RG3216P-1301-D-T5 adds anti-sulfur protection. RT1206DRE071K3L offers a balance of improved tolerance and identical form factor. All are active production parts with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.
