Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RT1206FRE07390RL are qualified based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 390 Ohms
• Identical package: 1206 (3216 Metric)
• Identical power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Identical composition: Thin Film
• Identical operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• Identical RoHS and MSL compliance

Substitutes may differ in tolerance specification (±0.1% vs ±1%) and temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C), representing performance upgrades. One substitute includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206BRD07390RL serves as a direct upgrade to RT1206FRE07390RL, offering improved tolerance (±0.1% vs ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C) while maintaining identical package, power rating, and compliance certifications. Both components are YAGEO products with Active status.

ERA-8AEB391V provides equivalent electrical performance to RT1206BRD07390RL with additional AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical dimensions differ slightly (3.20mm L x 1.60mm W vs 3.10mm L x 1.60mm W) and maximum seated height is 0.028" (0.70mm) compared to 0.026" (0.65mm). This component is suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability and qualification.

All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRD07390RL replace RT1206FRE07390RL in any circuit?

A: Yes. RT1206BRD07390RL is electrically and mechanically compatible. It provides superior tolerance and temperature stability, making it suitable for all applications where RT1206FRE07390RL is specified.

Q: What is the primary difference between RT1206BRD07390RL and ERA-8AEB391V?

A: Both offer ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient. ERA-8AEB391V includes AEC-Q200 automotive qualification and has slightly larger physical dimensions (3.20mm L vs 3.10mm L). Select ERA-8AEB391V for automotive applications requiring AEC-Q200 certification.

Q: Are there package compatibility concerns when substituting ERA-8AEB391V?

A: ERA-8AEB391V uses 1206 package but with slightly different dimensions. Maximum seated height is 0.028" (0.70mm) versus 0.026" (0.65mm) for the original part. Verify PCB layout clearance before substitution in space-constrained designs.

Q: Do all three parts meet RoHS and MSL requirements?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) rating, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing processes and storage conditions.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for general-purpose applications?

A: RT1206BRD07390RL is the standard upgrade, offering improved tolerance and temperature performance without additional qualification requirements. Select ERA-8AEB391V only if automotive AEC-Q200 qualification is mandated by application requirements.
