Engineering Selection Recommendations

For New Designs: Use RK73H1HTTCM2552F or AC0201FR-0725K5L. Both are active products with full compliance to ROHS3, AEC-Q200 automotive standards, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity ratings. RK73H1HTTCM2552F maintains KOA Speer Electronics manufacturer continuity. AC0201FR-0725K5L provides alternative sourcing from YAGEO with identical electrical performance.

For Existing Designs Using RK73H1HTTC2552F: Direct substitution with RK73H1HTTCM2552F is recommended as the primary option due to identical manufacturer lineage and specifications. AC0201FR-0725K5L serves as a secondary alternative for supply chain diversification. Both substitutes maintain full compatibility with existing circuit designs and PCB layouts.

Compliance Considerations: All three parts meet ROHS3 compliance and AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. MSL 1 rating ensures unlimited shelf life without moisture bake-out requirements. Temperature coefficient and operating range specifications are identical across all options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RK73H1HTTCM2552F be used as a direct replacement for RK73H1HTTC2552F?

A: Yes. RK73H1HTTCM2552F is the manufacturer-recommended substitute. All electrical parameters (resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, operating range) are identical. Both components are 0201 package thick film resistors with AEC-Q200 automotive rating and ROHS3 compliance. The primary difference is product status: RK73H1HTTCM2552F is active while RK73H1HTTC2552F is not for new designs.

Q: What is the difference between RK73H1HTTC2552F and AC0201FR-0725K5L?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent 25.5 kOhms ±1% 0.05W 0201 thick film resistors with AEC-Q200 rating. The primary difference is manufacturer: KOA Speer Electronics versus YAGEO. Both meet identical electrical specifications, temperature performance, and compliance requirements. AC0201FR-0725K5L provides an alternative sourcing option for supply chain flexibility.

Q: Are there any package or footprint differences between these substitutes?

A: No. All three parts use the 0201 (0603 Metric) package with identical dimensions: 0.024" L x 0.012" W (0.60mm x 0.30mm) and maximum seated height of 0.010" (0.26mm). PCB footprints and assembly processes are interchangeable.

Q: Do all substitutes meet automotive AEC-Q200 qualification?

A: Yes. RK73H1HTTC2552F, RK73H1HTTCM2552F, and AC0201FR-0725K5L all carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. All are suitable for automotive applications requiring this standard.

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

A: All three parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited). This means they have unlimited shelf life and do not require moisture bake-out procedures prior to soldering, regardless of storage duration or environmental conditions.

Q: Can I use AC0201FR-0725K5L in place of the original RK73H1HTTC2552F?

A: Yes. AC0201FR-0725K5L meets all electrical and mechanical specifications required for direct substitution. It is an active product with full AEC-Q200 and ROHS3 compliance. Use this part when KOA Speer Electronics components are unavailable or when supply chain diversification is required.
