Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is this resistor suitable for high-frequency applications?
A: While functional, thick film resistors like the RC1206FR-076R49L have higher parasitic effects than thin film. Consider thin film for RF designs.
Q2: What’s the derating curve above 70°C?
A: Power rating reduces linearly to 0W at 155°C (per YAGEO’s datasheet Fig. 5).
Q3: Can it withstand reflow soldering?
A: Yes, compliant with J-STD-020D standards for lead-free processes.
Q4: Minimum order quantity?
A: Factory pack quantity is 5,000 units, but smaller batches are available via distributors.
Q5: Alternatives for higher power?
A: For >0.25W, consider YAGEO’s RC2512 series or metal strip resistors.
