RT1206FRE07301RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206FRE07301RL is a 301 Ohms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package format, rated for 0.25W (1/4W) power dissipation. This component is manufactured by YAGEO and maintains active product status with full RoHS3 compliance. Substitute parts are identified to address applications requiring tighter tolerance specifications, enhanced temperature stability, or automotive-grade reliability certifications while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE07301RL is determined by the following criteria:

• Resistance Value: Must be 301 Ohms
• Package Format: Must be 1206 (3216 Metric) with compatible footprint dimensions
• Power Rating: Must be 0.25W (1/4W) minimum
• Composition: Thin film construction required
• Operating Temperature: Must support -55°C ~ 155°C range
• Compliance: RoHS3 and REACH compliance required

Two substitute parts meet these criteria with enhanced specifications:

1. RT1206BRD07301RL (YAGEO): Tighter tolerance variant (±0.1% vs ±1%) with improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C)
2. ERA-8AEB3010V (Panasonic): Automotive-grade equivalent with AEC-Q200 certification, ±0.1% tolerance, and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206BRD07301RL is a direct upgrade within the YAGEO RT series, offering improved tolerance (±0.1%) and temperature coefficient stability (±25ppm/°C) while maintaining identical package dimensions and footprint compatibility. This variant is suitable for applications requiring enhanced precision without automotive-specific requirements.

ERA-8AEB3010V is the automotive-qualified equivalent, certified to AEC-Q200 standards. The Panasonic ERA-8A series provides equivalent electrical performance with tighter tolerance and improved temperature stability. Physical dimensions show minor variations (length 3.20mm vs 3.10mm, height 0.70mm vs 0.65mm), which remain within standard PCB design tolerances for 1206 footprints. This part is appropriate for automotive applications or systems requiring automotive-grade component reliability.

All three parts maintain full RoHS3 and REACH compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD07301RL replace RT1206FRE07301RL in any application?

A: Yes. RT1206BRD07301RL is electrically and mechanically compatible with identical package dimensions (3.10mm x 1.60mm x 0.65mm). The tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and improved temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C) represent performance enhancements with no compatibility concerns.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences for ERA-8AEB3010V?

A: ERA-8AEB3010V has slightly larger dimensions: 3.20mm length (vs 3.10mm) and 0.70mm height (vs 0.65mm). These differences remain within standard 1206 footprint tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility for typical applications.

Q: Is ERA-8AEB3010V suitable for non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. AEC-Q200 certification indicates enhanced reliability and stricter manufacturing controls. The part is fully compatible with standard industrial and commercial applications while providing superior quality assurance.

Q: Are all three parts available in Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Yes. RT1206FRE07301RL, RT1206BRD07301RL, and ERA-8AEB3010V are all supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format for automated assembly processes.

Q: Do tolerance differences affect circuit performance?

A: Tolerance differences impact circuit precision. Applications requiring resistance values within ±1% can use any of the three parts. Applications requiring ±0.1% precision must use RT1206BRD07301RL or ERA-8AEB3010V.
