RT1206FRE071K6L Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206FRE071K6L is a 1.6 kOhms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This surface mount device is rated for 0.25W (1/4W) power dissipation and operates across -55°C to 155°C. The part is active in production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility are required due to inventory constraints, design upgrades, or application-specific requirements such as automotive qualification or enhanced tolerance specifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE071K6L is determined by the following criteria:

  • Resistance Value: Must be 1.6 kOhms
  • Package / Case: 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
  • RoHS Compliance: Must be ROHS3 Compliant

Substitute parts may exceed the original tolerance specification (±1%) while maintaining electrical equivalence. Enhanced features such as automotive AEC-Q200 qualification and anti-sulfur properties are permissible upgrades that do not compromise compatibility. All substitute parts listed maintain identical resistance value, package footprint, and thermal operating range.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain full electrical and mechanical compatibility with the RT1206FRE071K6L. Selection among substitutes should be based on the following factors:

ERA-8AEB162V (Panasonic): Offers ±0.1% tolerance with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Suitable for applications requiring enhanced precision and automotive-grade reliability.

RG3216P-1601-B-T5 (Susumu): Provides ±0.1% tolerance, AEC-Q200 qualification, and anti-sulfur protection. Recommended for automotive and harsh environment applications requiring superior corrosion resistance.

RG3216P-1601-D-T5 (Susumu): Delivers ±0.5% tolerance with AEC-Q200 qualification and anti-sulfur features. Suitable for automotive applications where tolerance requirements are less stringent than ±0.1%.

All substitute parts are active in production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating, ensuring long-term availability and environmental regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB162V replace RT1206FRE071K6L in any application? A: Yes. ERA-8AEB162V maintains identical resistance value, package footprint, power rating, and operating temperature range. The ±0.1% tolerance is tighter than the original ±1%, providing enhanced precision without compatibility issues.

Q: What is the difference between RG3216P-1601-B-T5 and RG3216P-1601-D-T5? A: Both parts are manufactured by Susumu in 1206 package with AEC-Q200 qualification and anti-sulfur protection. The primary difference is tolerance: RG3216P-1601-B-T5 specifies ±0.1%, while RG3216P-1601-D-T5 specifies ±0.5%.

Q: Are all substitute parts suitable for automotive applications? A: ERA-8AEB162V, RG3216P-1601-B-T5, and RG3216P-1601-D-T5 all carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The original RT1206FRE071K6L does not have automotive certification.

Q: Do substitute parts have identical physical dimensions? A: All parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package. Minor variations exist in maximum seated height: RT1206FRE071K6L is 0.026" (0.65mm), while substitute parts are 0.028" (0.70mm) for ERA-8AEB162V and 0.020" (0.50mm) for Susumu parts. These variations are within standard PCB assembly tolerances.

Q: What does anti-sulfur protection mean? A: Anti-sulfur protection in RG3216P-1601-B-T5 and RG3216P-1601-D-T5 provides enhanced resistance to sulfur-containing atmospheric contaminants, extending component reliability in industrial and harsh environments.

Q: Are all parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. RT1206FRE071K6L and all listed substitutes are ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).
