Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RK73H1HTTC34R8D is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

  • Resistance value: 34.8 Ohms (exact match required)
  • Tolerance: ±0.5% (precision class must be maintained)
  • Power rating: 0.05W minimum (equal or higher acceptable)
  • Package: 0201 (0603 Metric) form factor
  • Composition: Thick film construction
  • Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C
  • Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C minimum
  • Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200 required
  • Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 or better
  • RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

Substitute parts must satisfy all mandatory parameters to ensure functional and environmental equivalence. Deviations in any parameter render a part unsuitable for direct replacement.
