Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TE Connectivity 1676455-5 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance Value: 8.06 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±0.1% (exact match required)
• Power Rating: 0.1W / 1/10W (exact match required)
• Composition: Thin Film (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0805 (2012 Metric) (exact match required)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±10ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 155°C (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.079" L x 0.049" W / 2.00mm x 1.25mm (exact match required)
• Number of Terminations: 2 (exact match required)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (exact match required)

The identified substitute part differs only in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus bulk packaging) and compliance certifications, with no variation in electrical or mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the TE Connectivity 1676455-5 and RN73C2A8K06BTDF are electrically and mechanically equivalent 8.06 kOhms ±0.1% thin film chip resistors in 0805 package format. Selection between these parts is determined by application requirements and compliance mandates:

1676455-5 is suitable for applications where bulk packaging is acceptable and RoHS compliance is not a design requirement.

RN73C2A8K06BTDF is the appropriate selection for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance and Tape & Reel packaging format for automated assembly processes. This part provides documented REACH compliance status (REACH Unaffected) compared to the vendor-undefined status of the main part number.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance across the full operating temperature range of -55°C to 155°C and are classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special moisture handling requirements during storage or assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN73C2A8K06BTDF be used as a direct replacement for 1676455-5 in PCB assembly?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with matching resistance value (8.06 kOhms), tolerance (±0.1%), power rating (0.1W), composition (thin film), package (0805), temperature coefficient (±10ppm/°C), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The primary difference is packaging format: RN73C2A8K06BTDF is supplied in Tape & Reel format while 1676455-5 is supplied in bulk packaging.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats?

A: 1676455-5 is supplied in bulk packaging suitable for manual component selection and small-quantity applications. RN73C2A8K06BTDF is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, which is standard for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment and high-volume production environments.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: Yes. RN73C2A8K06BTDF carries ROHS3 compliance certification and documented REACH Unaffected status. The 1676455-5 has RoHS status listed as "Not applicable" and REACH status as "Vendor Undefined." Applications requiring RoHS3 compliance must use RN73C2A8K06BTDF.

Q: Do these parts require special handling during storage or assembly?

A: No. Both parts are classified as Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity precautions are required during storage, handling, or assembly processes.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical dimensions of 0.079" L x 0.049" W (2.00mm x 1.25mm) with maximum seated height of 0.026" (0.65mm), ensuring identical PCB footprint and assembly clearance requirements.

Q: What is the temperature coefficient specification and why is it important?

A: Both parts have a temperature coefficient of ±10ppm/°C, meaning the resistance value changes by a maximum of 10 parts per million for each degree Celsius change in operating temperature. This specification is critical for precision analog circuits and measurement applications operating across the full -55°C to 155°C temperature range.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in high-precision measurement circuits?

A: Yes. Both parts meet the ±0.1% tolerance specification and ±10ppm/°C temperature coefficient requirement, making them suitable for precision measurement and analog signal conditioning applications where tight tolerance and temperature stability are required.
