RT1206FRE07604RL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206FRE07604RL is a 604 Ohm ±1% thin film chip resistor manufactured by YAGEO in the 1206 (3216 Metric) package format. This component is rated for 0.25W 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).

Substitute parts are identified when electrical specifications (resistance value, power rating, package type, and operating temperature range) remain constant while allowing variations in tolerance, temperature coefficient, and automotive qualification levels.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE07604RL is determined by strict equivalence in the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 604 Ohms (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum
• Package: 1206 (3216 Metric) form factor
• Composition: Thin film construction
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum coverage
• Termination count: 2 terminations

Substitute parts may vary in tolerance (tighter specifications acceptable), temperature coefficient, and automotive qualification (AEC-Q200). Physical dimensions may vary within the 1206 package specification. All identified substitutes maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RT1206FRE07604RL can be directly replaced by ERA-8AEB6040V or RG3216V-6040-P-T1 in applications where the 1206 package and 604 Ohm resistance value are required.

ERA-8AEB6040V provides improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and reduced temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C) while maintaining identical power rating and operating temperature range. This part carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for automotive-grade applications.

RG3216V-6040-P-T1 offers the highest precision with ±0.02% tolerance and ±5ppm/°C temperature coefficient. This part includes anti-sulfur protection and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. Physical dimensions remain within 1206 package specification with reduced seated height (0.020" maximum versus 0.026" maximum).

All three parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring compatibility with standard PCB assembly processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB6040V replace RT1206FRE07604RL in any application?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (604 Ohms), power rating (0.25W), package type (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). ERA-8AEB6040V provides superior tolerance and temperature stability.

Q: What is the primary difference between RG3216V-6040-P-T1 and the original part?

A: RG3216V-6040-P-T1 maintains all critical electrical parameters but offers significantly tighter tolerance (±0.02% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±5ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C). It includes anti-sulfur protection and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between these parts?

A: All parts conform to the 1206 (3216 Metric) package specification. Seated height varies: RT1206FRE07604RL maximum 0.026", ERA-8AEB6040V maximum 0.028", and RG3216V-6040-P-T1 maximum 0.020". These variations remain within standard 1206 package tolerances.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet the same compliance requirements?

A: Yes. All three parts are ROHS3 compliant, carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, and are REACH unaffected with EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: Which substitute part should be selected for precision applications?

A: RG3216V-6040-P-T1 is appropriate for applications requiring high precision due to its ±0.02% tolerance and ±5ppm/°C temperature coefficient.

Q: Are automotive applications supported by substitute parts?

A: Both ERA-8AEB6040V and RG3216V-6040-P-T1 carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The original RT1206FRE07604RL does not have automotive rating.
