RT1206FRE07255KL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206FRE07255KL is a 255 kOhms ±1% thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in the 1206 (3216 Metric) package format. This surface-mount device is rated for 0.25W (1/4W) power dissipation and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part maintains Active product status and carries ROHS3 compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent resistance values, package formats, power ratings, and operating temperature ranges align with the original specification, while offering alternative tolerance grades, temperature coefficients, or automotive qualifications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RT1206FRE07255KL are qualified based on the following criteria:

• Resistance Value: Exact match at 255 kOhms
• Package Format: 1206 (3216 Metric) surface-mount package
• Power Rating: 0.25W (1/4W) minimum
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 155°C minimum
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected

Tolerance grades may vary (±0.1% to ±0.5%) while maintaining functional equivalence. Temperature coefficient specifications may differ (±25ppm/°C to ±50ppm/°C). Automotive AEC-Q200 qualification is an additional feature available in certain substitutes but not required for basic equivalence.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ERA-8AEB2553V (Panasonic Electronic Components) offers improved tolerance performance at ±0.1% with AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and a reduced temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C. This substitute is suitable for applications requiring tighter tolerance control and automotive-grade reliability.

RG3216P-2553-D-T5 (Susumu) provides AEC-Q200 automotive qualification with anti-sulfur protection and a temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C. The tolerance specification of ±0.5% remains tighter than the original part. This substitute is appropriate for automotive and harsh environment applications.

Both substitute parts maintain full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. All three parts share identical operating temperature ranges, package formats, power ratings, and moisture sensitivity classifications. Selection between substitutes depends on application-specific requirements for tolerance precision and automotive environmental qualification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB2553V replace RT1206FRE07255KL in any application?

A: ERA-8AEB2553V is electrically and mechanically compatible. The ±0.1% tolerance is superior to the original ±1% specification. The AEC-Q200 qualification is an additional feature that does not prevent use in non-automotive applications. Physical dimensions differ slightly (3.20mm vs 3.10mm length; 0.70mm vs 0.65mm height), which must be verified against PCB layout constraints.

Q: What is the difference between RG3216P-2553-D-T5 and ERA-8AEB2553V?

A: Both parts share identical resistance, power rating, package format, and operating temperature range. RG3216P-2553-D-T5 includes anti-sulfur protection and has a lower seated height (0.50mm vs 0.70mm). ERA-8AEB2553V offers superior tolerance at ±0.1% versus ±0.5%. Both carry AEC-Q200 qualification.

Q: Are there package compatibility concerns when substituting these parts?

A: All three parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package. Physical dimensions vary slightly: RT1206FRE07255KL measures 3.10mm × 1.60mm with 0.65mm height; both substitutes measure 3.20mm × 1.60mm with heights of 0.70mm and 0.50mm respectively. PCB footprint and clearance requirements must be evaluated for each application.

Q: Do all parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings. ERA-8AEB2553V and RG3216P-2553-D-T5 include AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which the original part does not possess.

Q: Which substitute offers the best temperature stability?

A: Both ERA-8AEB2553V and RG3216P-2553-D-T5 provide a temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C, compared to the original part's ±50ppm/°C. This represents improved temperature stability across the -55°C to 155°C operating range.
