Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the TE Connectivity 1676294-5 are identified based on strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitution logic requires that alternative parts maintain identical specifications in the following areas:

• Resistance value: 2.74 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±0.1%
• Power rating: 0.1W (1/10W)
• Composition: Thin Film
• Package type: 0805 (2012 Metric)
• Temperature coefficient: ±10ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• Physical dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W (2.00mm x 1.25mm)
• Height - Seated (Max): 0.026" (0.65mm)
• Number of terminations: 2
• Moisture sensitivity level: 1 (Unlimited)

Parts meeting these criteria are classified as direct equivalents and may be substituted without circuit redesign or performance degradation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the main part 1676294-5 and the substitute part RN73C2A2K74BTDF are manufactured by TE Connectivity Passive Product and maintain Active product status. The parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters.

The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format. The main part 1676294-5 is supplied in bulk packaging, while the substitute RN73C2A2K74BTDF is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. This difference affects handling, storage, and automated assembly processes but does not impact electrical performance or circuit functionality.

The substitute part RN73C2A2K74BTDF carries ROHS3 compliance certification and REACH Unaffected status, providing enhanced regulatory documentation compared to the main part. Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8533.21.0030) classifications.

Selection between these parts should be based on procurement requirements, assembly methodology, and regulatory compliance documentation needs rather than electrical or mechanical considerations.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN73C2A2K74BTDF be used as a direct replacement for 1676294-5 in existing circuit designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The RN73C2A2K74BTDF meets all electrical specifications, dimensional requirements, and operating parameters of the 1676294-5. No circuit redesign or performance adjustment is required.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats?

A: The main part 1676294-5 is supplied in bulk packaging, suitable for manual handling and small-quantity applications. The substitute RN73C2A2K74BTDF is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly and high-volume production environments. The component itself is identical; only the delivery format differs.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: The substitute part RN73C2A2K74BTDF carries ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. The main part 1676294-5 lists RoHS status as Not applicable and REACH status as Vendor Undefined. Both parts share identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications. If regulatory compliance documentation is required, the substitute part provides more complete certification.

Q: Do these parts have identical physical dimensions?

A: Yes. Both parts are 0805 (2012 Metric) package type with dimensions of 0.079" L x 0.049" W (2.00mm x 1.25mm) and maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm). They are mechanically interchangeable on PCB layouts designed for 0805 resistors.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts?

A: Both parts have Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1, which indicates Unlimited shelf life under normal storage conditions. No special moisture control measures are required during storage or handling.

Q: Are the electrical specifications identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical resistance value (2.74 kOhms), tolerance (±0.1%), power rating (0.1W), temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). They are electrically equivalent in all respects.
