Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RT1206FRE0784R5L are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

  • Resistance Value: Exact match at 84.5 Ohms
  • Package / Case: Identical 1206 (3216 Metric) form factor for PCB footprint compatibility
  • Power Rating: Minimum 0.25W (1/4W) to meet or exceed thermal requirements
  • Composition: Thin film construction for performance consistency
  • Operating Temperature Range: Support for -55°C to 155°C operational envelope
  • Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating maintained

The ERA-8AEB84R5V from Panasonic Electronic Components qualifies as a direct substitute, offering improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) and automotive-grade AEC-Q200 certification while maintaining all core electrical and mechanical parameters.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RT1206FRE0784R5L and ERA-8AEB84R5V maintain Active product status and full ROHS3 compliance. The ERA-8AEB84R5V provides enhanced performance characteristics through tighter tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C). The Panasonic component carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making it suitable for applications requiring automotive-grade reliability standards. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific tolerance requirements and environmental qualification needs. Both components are electrically and mechanically interchangeable within the 1206 package footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the ERA-8AEB84R5V replace the RT1206FRE0784R5L in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical resistance value (84.5 Ohms), power rating (0.25W), package form factor (1206), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The ERA-8AEB84R5V is a direct mechanical and electrical substitute with no PCB layout modifications required.

Q: What are the key differences between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are tolerance specification (±0.1% for ERA-8AEB84R5V versus ±1% for RT1206FRE0784R5L), temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), and automotive qualification (AEC-Q200 for the Panasonic part). Both maintain identical package dimensions and compliance certifications.

Q: Are there physical dimension differences between the 1206 packages?

A: Minor dimensional variations exist. The RT1206FRE0784R5L measures 0.122" L x 0.063" W (3.10mm x 1.60mm) with 0.026" maximum seated height. The ERA-8AEB84R5V measures 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) with 0.028" maximum seated height. These variations remain within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Which part should be selected for automotive applications?

A: The ERA-8AEB84R5V is qualified to AEC-Q200 automotive standards and is the appropriate selection for automotive-grade applications. The RT1206FRE0784R5L is suitable for general industrial and commercial applications.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RT1206FRE0784R5L and ERA-8AEB84R5V are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating.
