Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE0744K2L is determined by the following criteria:

  • Identical resistance value: 44.2 kOhms
  • Equal or tighter tolerance specification (±1% or better)
  • Identical power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
  • Identical package: 1206 (3216 Metric)
  • Thin film composition
  • Operating temperature range encompassing -55°C to 155°C
  • Tape & Reel packaging format
  • RoHS3 compliance

The ERA-8AEB4422V meets all substitution criteria with an upgrade in tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) and includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification.

Both components maintain Active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. The identical operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C) and packaging format (Tape & Reel) ensure seamless integration into existing procurement and assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ERA-8AEB4422V be used as a direct replacement for the RT1206FRE0744K2L?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value (44.2 kOhms), power rating (0.25W), package type (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The ERA-8AEB4422V provides tighter tolerance (±0.1%) and automotive qualification without compromising compatibility.

Q: What are the physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: The RT1206FRE0744K2L measures 0.122" L × 0.063" W (3.10mm × 1.60mm) with maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm). The ERA-8AEB4422V measures 0.126" L × 0.063" W (3.20mm × 1.60mm) with maximum seated height of 0.028" (0.70mm). Both fit the 1206 (3216 Metric) package specification and are compatible with standard 1206 footprints.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: Both components are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected. The ERA-8AEB4422V includes automotive AEC-Q200 qualification, which the RT1206FRE0744K2L does not specify. This additional qualification does not restrict use in non-automotive applications.

Q: What is the significance of the tolerance difference?

A: The RT1206FRE0744K2L carries ±1% tolerance, while the ERA-8AEB4422V carries ±0.1% tolerance. The tighter tolerance of the substitute component provides improved accuracy and stability, representing an upgrade in precision performance.

Q: Are both parts available in Tape & Reel packaging?

A: Yes. Both the RT1206FRE0744K2L and ERA-8AEB4422V are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, ensuring compatibility with automated assembly equipment and standard component handling processes.
