RT1206FRE07536KL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206FRE07536KL is a 536 kOhms ±1% thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in the 1206 (3216 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.25W (1/4W) power dissipation and operates across the temperature range of -55°C to 155°C. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when design requirements permit tolerance relaxation, enhanced performance specifications, or alternative sourcing for supply chain optimization while maintaining functional compatibility within the specified electrical and mechanical parameters.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE07536KL is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 536 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package format: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Composition: Thin film technology (maintains performance characteristics)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum (equal or wider acceptable)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (regulatory requirement maintained)

The ERA-8AEB5363V qualifies as an upgrade substitute based on identical resistance, package, power rating, and operating temperature specifications. Enhanced tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and superior temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) represent performance improvements within the same functional category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ERA-8AEB5363V represents a direct functional substitute for the RT1206FRE07536KL with enhanced specifications. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical moisture sensitivity ratings. The Panasonic ERA-8AEB5363V provides tighter tolerance control (±0.1% versus ±1%) and improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) within the same package footprint and power rating.

The ERA-8AEB5363V carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade component reliability. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific tolerance requirements and supply chain availability rather than functional incompatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB5363V replace RT1206FRE07536KL in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance values, package dimensions (1206/3216 Metric), power ratings (0.25W), and operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 155°C). Physical and electrical compatibility is maintained.

Q: What are the tolerance differences between these parts?

A: The RT1206FRE07536KL specifies ±1% tolerance, while the ERA-8AEB5363V provides ±0.1% tolerance. The ERA-8AEB5363V offers tighter tolerance control, reducing resistance value variation across the specified range.

Q: How do temperature coefficients affect substitution?

A: The RT1206FRE07536KL has a temperature coefficient of ±50ppm/°C, while the ERA-8AEB5363V is rated at ±25ppm/°C. The ERA-8AEB5363V exhibits superior temperature stability, resulting in smaller resistance value changes across the operating temperature range.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RT1206FRE07536KL and ERA-8AEB5363V are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity ratings.

Q: What is the significance of AEC-Q200 rating on the ERA-8AEB5363V?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive qualification standard. The ERA-8AEB5363V meets automotive reliability and performance requirements, making it suitable for automotive applications where the RT1206FRE07536KL may not carry such certification.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist. The RT1206FRE07536KL measures 0.122" L × 0.063" W (3.10mm × 1.60mm) with 0.026" maximum seated height, while the ERA-8AEB5363V measures 0.126" L × 0.063" W (3.20mm × 1.60mm) with 0.028" maximum seated height. Both fit the 1206 package specification and are compatible with standard PCB layouts.
