Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE0752K3L is determined by the following mandatory parameters:

• Resistance value: 52.3 kOhms (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

Tolerance and temperature coefficient may vary within acceptable engineering margins. Automotive-grade certifications (AEC-Q200) represent enhanced qualification but do not preclude substitution in non-automotive applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RT1206BRE0752K3L (YAGEO): This substitute offers improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical characteristics. Both components share the same manufacturer, series designation (RT), and thermal performance. Selection is appropriate for applications requiring tighter resistance tolerance without additional qualification requirements.

ERA-8AEB5232V (Panasonic Electronic Components): This substitute provides automotive-grade AEC-Q200 qualification with enhanced temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C). Physical dimensions show minor variation (0.126" L x 0.063" W versus 0.122" L x 0.063" W; height 0.028" versus 0.026"). This component is suitable for automotive applications or systems requiring superior temperature stability. Non-automotive applications may select this part without restriction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RT1206BRE0752K3L be used as a direct replacement for RT1206FRE0752K3L?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value, power rating, package format, and operating temperature range. The RT1206BRE0752K3L provides superior tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%), making it a direct upgrade with no design modifications required.

Q: What are the physical differences between ERA-8AEB5232V and the original part?

A: ERA-8AEB5232V dimensions are 0.126" L x 0.063" W x 0.028" H (max), compared to 0.122" L x 0.063" W x 0.026" H (max) for RT1206FRE0752K3L. Both are classified as 1206 (3216 Metric) package format. Verify PCB layout clearances before substitution in space-constrained applications.

Q: Is ERA-8AEB5232V suitable for non-automotive applications?

A: Yes. AEC-Q200 automotive qualification represents enhanced reliability screening and does not restrict use in non-automotive circuits. The component meets all standard industrial specifications and compliance requirements.

Q: How do tolerance specifications affect circuit performance?

A: Tolerance determines the maximum deviation from the nominal 52.3 kOhms value. RT1206FRE0752K3L allows ±1% deviation (51.77 kOhms to 52.83 kOhms), while RT1206BRE0752K3L and ERA-8AEB5232V allow ±0.1% deviation (52.178 kOhms to 52.422 kOhms). Select based on circuit sensitivity to resistance variation.

Q: Are all three parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. RT1206FRE0752K3L, RT1206BRE0752K3L, and ERA-8AEB5232V are all ROHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), meeting environmental and regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications.
