Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE07487KL is determined by the following criteria:

• Resistance value must be 487 kOhms
• Package must be 1206 (3216 Metric) with 2 terminations
• Power rating must be 0.25W minimum
• Composition must be thin film
• Operating temperature range must encompass -55°C ~ 155°C
• RoHS3 compliance required
• Tolerance may be equal to or tighter than ±1%
• Temperature coefficient may be equal to or lower than ±50ppm/°C

The ERA-8AEB4873V qualifies as a substitute based on these parameters, offering improved tolerance (±0.1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C) while maintaining identical resistance, power rating, package, and temperature range specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT1206FRE07487KL and ERA-8AEB4873V are Active status components with full RoHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. The ERA-8AEB4873V provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), making it suitable for applications requiring higher precision. The ERA-8AEB4873V carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which may be relevant for automotive or high-reliability applications. Both components maintain identical resistance value, power rating, operating temperature range, and 1206 package compatibility. Selection between these parts should be based on application tolerance requirements and any automotive qualification mandates.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB4873V be used as a direct replacement for RT1206FRE07487KL?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value (487 kOhms), power rating (0.25W), package type (1206), composition (thin film), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 155°C). The ERA-8AEB4873V offers improved tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications.

Q: Are there any dimensional differences between these parts?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist. The RT1206FRE07487KL measures 0.122" L x 0.063" W (3.10mm x 1.60mm) with 0.026" maximum seated height. The ERA-8AEB4873V measures 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) with 0.028" maximum seated height. Both fit the 1206 (3216 Metric) package specification and should be compatible with standard 1206 footprints.

Q: What is the significance of the ±0.1% tolerance on the ERA-8AEB4873V?

A: The ±0.1% tolerance on ERA-8AEB4873V is tighter than the ±1% tolerance on RT1206FRE07487KL, meaning the actual resistance value will be closer to the nominal 487 kOhms specification. This is beneficial for precision analog circuits, measurement equipment, and applications with strict tolerance requirements.

Q: Does the AEC-Q200 qualification on ERA-8AEB4873V affect general-purpose applications?

A: No. AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard. The ERA-8AEB4873V can be used in any application where the RT1206FRE07487KL is specified. The automotive qualification indicates additional reliability testing and does not restrict use in non-automotive applications.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both RT1206FRE07487KL and ERA-8AEB4873V are ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for commercial and industrial applications.
