RT1206FRE07887KL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RT1206FRE07887KL is a 887 kOhms ±1% 0.25W chip resistor in 1206 (3216 Metric) package manufactured by YAGEO. This thin film resistor is designed for general-purpose applications requiring moderate tolerance and standard operating temperature range. The part is currently in active production status with 970 units available in stock.

Substitute parts are identified when they maintain the same resistance value, package format, and power rating while offering improved electrical characteristics or enhanced reliability certifications. Alternative components may be required due to supply constraints, design upgrades, or application-specific performance requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RT1206FRE07887KL is determined by the following criteria:

Primary Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 887 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package format: 1206 (3216 Metric) (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
• Composition: Thin Film (maintains electrical characteristics)

Secondary Compatibility Parameters:

• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C minimum (equal or wider acceptable)
• RoHS3 compliance: Required for regulatory alignment
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 acceptable

Tolerance Consideration: Substitute parts with tolerance ±0.1% or tighter are electrically compatible with applications designed for ±1% tolerance, as they represent improved precision within the same functional envelope.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The ERA-8AEB8873V from Panasonic Electronic Components is a direct functional substitute for the RT1206FRE07887KL. Both components share identical resistance values, package formats, power ratings, and operating temperature ranges.

The ERA-8AEB8873V offers improved electrical performance through tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C). Additionally, this part carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, which provides enhanced reliability documentation and qualification testing suitable for automotive and mission-critical applications.

Selection between these parts should be based on application requirements: the RT1206FRE07887KL is appropriate for general-purpose applications with standard tolerance requirements, while the ERA-8AEB8873V is preferred for precision circuits or applications requiring automotive-grade reliability assurance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ERA-8AEB8873V replace RT1206FRE07887KL in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components have identical resistance values (887 kOhms), package formats (1206), power ratings (0.25W), and operating temperature ranges (-55°C ~ 155°C). The ERA-8AEB8873V features improved tolerance and temperature coefficient, making it electrically compatible with designs specified for the RT1206FRE07887KL.

Q: What is the difference in tolerance between these parts?

A: The RT1206FRE07887KL has ±1% tolerance, while the ERA-8AEB8873V has ±0.1% tolerance. The tighter tolerance of the substitute part ensures more precise resistance values and is suitable for applications requiring higher accuracy.

Q: Are both parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the RT1206FRE07887KL and ERA-8AEB8873V are ROHS3 compliant and have unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), meeting standard environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What does AEC-Q200 certification mean for the ERA-8AEB8873V?

A: AEC-Q200 is an automotive industry qualification standard. The ERA-8AEB8873V meets this certification, indicating it has undergone additional reliability testing and qualification procedures suitable for automotive applications. This certification is not required for general-purpose applications but provides enhanced assurance for mission-critical or automotive designs.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Both parts use the 1206 (3216 Metric) package. The RT1206FRE07887KL has dimensions of 0.122" L x 0.063" W (3.10mm x 1.60mm) with maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm). The ERA-8AEB8873V has dimensions of 0.126" L x 0.063" W (3.20mm x 1.60mm) with maximum seated height of 0.028" (0.70mm). These minor dimensional variations are within standard 1206 package tolerances and do not affect PCB layout compatibility.
