Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RI-TRP-DR2B-40 qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following critical parameters:

• Frequency: Both operate at 134.2kHz, ensuring compatibility with existing reader infrastructure
• Memory Configuration: Both provide 1.36kb user-writable memory with identical read/write functionality
• Standards Compliance: Both comply with ISO 11784 and ISO 11785, maintaining regulatory and application requirements
• Encapsulation Style: Both use glass encapsulation, providing equivalent physical durability and environmental protection
• Technology: Both are passive RFID tags, requiring no independent power source
• Manufacturer: Both are manufactured by Texas Instruments, ensuring consistent quality and design lineage

The primary difference is product status: RI-TRP-DR2B-40 is active and in production, while RI-TRP-DR2B-30 is obsolete. The RI-TRP-DR2B-40 has a narrower operating temperature range and different packaging options.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RI-TRP-DR2B-40 is the recommended substitute for the obsolete RI-TRP-DR2B-30. Both parts maintain identical functional specifications for frequency, memory capacity, and standards compliance. The substitute part is currently in active production status with confirmed inventory availability (5900 pcs), ensuring reliable supply chain access.

Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements. The substitute part is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging formats, providing flexibility for manufacturing processes.

The operating temperature range difference (-25°C ~ 85°C for the main part versus 0°C ~ 70°C for the substitute) should be evaluated against specific application requirements. If operation below 0°C or above 70°C is required, alternative solutions must be pursued.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RI-TRP-DR2B-40 be used as a direct replacement for RI-TRP-DR2B-30?

A: Yes. Both parts operate at 134.2kHz with identical 1.36kb user-writable memory and comply with ISO 11784 and ISO 11785 standards. The functional specifications are equivalent for standard animal identification and tracking applications.

Q: What is the key difference between these two parts?

A: The primary difference is product status and operating temperature range. RI-TRP-DR2B-30 is obsolete with an operating range of -25°C ~ 85°C, while RI-TRP-DR2B-40 is active in production with an operating range of 0°C ~ 70°C.

Q: Are there packaging differences between the two parts?

A: Yes. RI-TRP-DR2B-40 is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® packaging, while RI-TRP-DR2B-30 packaging information was not specified. Verify packaging requirements for your manufacturing process.

Q: Do both parts meet current compliance standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements.

Q: What should I do if my application requires operation below 0°C or above 70°C?

A: The RI-TRP-DR2B-40 operating range (0°C ~ 70°C) is narrower than the original part. If your application requires extended temperature operation, consult Texas Instruments for alternative solutions or verify that the narrower range is acceptable for your specific use case.
