Engineering Selection Recommendations

RK73H1HTTCM2R20F is the direct equivalent substitute for RK73H1HTTC2R20F.

Basis for Selection:

The RK73H1HTTCM2R20F maintains complete electrical and mechanical equivalence with the original part across all specified parameters. Both components are manufactured by KOA Speer Electronics within the RK73H series and share identical resistance value (2.2 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.05W), package configuration (0201/0603 Metric), and automotive qualification (AEC-Q200).

The critical distinction is product status: the original RK73H1HTTC2R20F is designated "Not For New Designs," while the substitute RK73H1HTTCM2R20F carries "Active" status. This transition indicates the substitute represents the current production alternative within the manufacturer's portfolio. Both parts satisfy identical compliance requirements including RoHS3, REACH Unaffected status, and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity classification.

For applications currently using RK73H1HTTC2R20F, transition to RK73H1HTTCM2R20F is supported by full parameter equivalence and active manufacturing status. No circuit redesign or PCB layout modification is required.
