Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE0723K2L is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Resistance value: 23.2 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package type: 1206 (3216 Metric) form factor
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum coverage
• RoHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating

Substitute parts identified below meet all mandatory parameters. Tolerance specifications may be tighter (±0.1% vs. ±1%), and additional certifications such as automotive AEC-Q200 qualification may be present. These enhancements do not prevent substitution but represent performance upgrades suitable for applications requiring higher precision or specific industry standards.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206BRD0723K2L (YAGEO): This part is a direct upgrade within the same manufacturer's product line. It maintains identical resistance, power rating, and package specifications while providing tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs. ±1%) and improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs. ±50ppm/°C). Selection is appropriate for applications requiring enhanced precision without introducing cross-manufacturer compatibility concerns. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are maintained.

ERA-8AEB2322V (Panasonic Electronic Components): This part meets all substitution criteria and adds automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. Physical dimensions show minor variation (0.126" L vs. 0.122" L; 0.028" H vs. 0.026" H maximum seated height), which remains within typical PCB layout tolerances for 1206 packages. Selection is appropriate for automotive applications, harsh environments, or systems requiring AEC-Q200 certified components. ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating are maintained.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD0723K2L replace RT1206FRE0723K2L in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (23.2 kOhms), power rating (0.25W), package (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The substitute offers tighter tolerance and lower temperature coefficient, making it suitable for direct substitution without circuit redesign.

Q: What is the difference between ±1% and ±0.1% tolerance?

A: Tolerance defines the maximum deviation from the nominal resistance value. At 23.2 kOhms, ±1% tolerance allows ±232 ohms deviation, while ±0.1% tolerance allows ±23.2 ohms deviation. Tighter tolerance is beneficial in precision measurement circuits, filters, and calibration applications.

Q: Is ERA-8AEB2322V compatible with standard PCB layouts designed for 1206 packages?

A: Yes. ERA-8AEB2322V is a 1206 (3216 Metric) package component. Minor dimensional variations (length 0.126" vs. 0.122"; height 0.028" vs. 0.026" maximum) fall within standard PCB design tolerances and do not require layout modifications.

Q: Why would I select ERA-8AEB2322V over RT1206BRD0723K2L?

A: ERA-8AEB2322V carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it the required choice for automotive applications, safety-critical systems, or environments with stringent reliability requirements. Both parts offer ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RT1206FRE0723K2L, RT1206BRD0723K2L, and ERA-8AEB2322V are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, suitable for standard manufacturing and storage conditions.
