RT1206FRE07374RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206FRE07374RL is a 374 Ohms ±1% thin film chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package rated for 0.25W (1/4W) power dissipation. Manufactured by YAGEO under the RT series, this component is Active status and ROHS3 compliant. Substitute parts are identified to provide alternatives with improved tolerance specifications or enhanced automotive qualification while maintaining core electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE07374RL is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Resistance value: 374 Ohms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum
• Composition: Thin Film
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C minimum coverage
• RoHS3 compliance

Identified substitutes meet all mandatory parameters. Tolerance and temperature coefficient represent performance enhancements rather than functional requirements for substitution.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection between RT1206FRE07374RL and its substitutes depends on application-specific tolerance and temperature stability requirements:

RT1206BRD07374RL provides improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) while maintaining identical package, power rating, and operating temperature range. Both are YAGEO RT series components.

ERA-8AEB3740V offers equivalent tolerance and temperature coefficient performance to RT1206BRD07374RL with additional automotive AEC-Q200 qualification. Dimensional variation exists: ERA-8AEB3740V length is 0.126" (3.20mm) versus 0.122" (3.10mm) for YAGEO parts, and seated height is 0.028" (0.70mm) versus 0.026" (0.65mm). These dimensional differences require PCB layout verification for applications with space constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD07374RL directly replace RT1206FRE07374RL?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (374 Ohms), package (1206), power rating (0.25W), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). RT1206BRD07374RL provides superior tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) with no functional incompatibility.

Q: Is ERA-8AEB3740V compatible with the original RT1206FRE07374RL?

A: Electrical compatibility is confirmed: identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, composition, and operating temperature range. Physical compatibility requires verification. ERA-8AEB3740V dimensions are 0.126" L x 0.063" W x 0.028" H (max) versus RT1206FRE07374RL at 0.122" L x 0.063" W x 0.026" H (max). PCB footprint and clearance must be assessed for applications with restricted board space.

Q: What is the significance of AEC-Q200 qualification on ERA-8AEB3740V?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard. ERA-8AEB3740V meets this specification; the original RT1206FRE07374RL does not list this certification. Selection of ERA-8AEB3740V is appropriate for automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 compliance.

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

A: Yes. RT1206FRE07374RL, RT1206BRD07374RL, and ERA-8AEB3740V are all supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging suitable for automated assembly.

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

A: Tolerance defines the maximum deviation from the nominal 374 Ohm value. ±1% allows deviation up to ±3.74 Ohms; ±0.1% restricts deviation to ±0.374 Ohms. Applications requiring tighter resistance accuracy benefit from ±0.1% tolerance parts.
