Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RK73H1HTTC6980F are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching:

Substitution Criteria:

• Resistance value: 698 Ohms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.05W / 1/20W (exact match required)
• Package format: 0201 (0603 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±200ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -55°C ~ 155°C (exact match required)
• Automotive qualification: AEC-Q200 (exact match required)
• Moisture resistance: Present (exact match required)
• RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)
• Moisture sensitivity: MSL 1 (exact match required)

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: manufacturer-recommended alternatives from KOA Speer Electronics, Inc., and direct cross-reference parts from alternative manufacturers meeting identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RK73H1HTTCM6980F (KOA Speer Electronics, Inc.): This part is the manufacturer-recommended substitute from KOA Speer Electronics, Inc. It maintains active product status, indicating ongoing manufacturing and supply availability. All electrical and mechanical parameters are identical to the main part. This option is preferred for designs requiring continuity within the KOA Speer product family and for applications where manufacturer consistency is a design requirement.

AC0201FR-07698RL (YAGEO): This part is a direct cross-reference from YAGEO, meeting all specified electrical and mechanical parameters. It carries active product status and is available in Tape & Reel packaging. This option provides an alternative source for supply chain diversification and is suitable for applications where multi-source qualification is required. All automotive AEC-Q200, RoHS3, and MSL 1 certifications are maintained.

Both substitute parts satisfy the complete parameter set of the original RK73H1HTTC6980F and are suitable for direct replacement in existing designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RK73H1HTTCM6980F be used as a direct replacement for RK73H1HTTC6980F? A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications (698 Ohms ±1%, 0.05W), package format (0201), composition (thick film), temperature characteristics (±200ppm/°C, -55°C ~ 155°C), and automotive certifications (AEC-Q200, ROHS3, MSL 1). The primary difference is product status: RK73H1HTTCM6980F is active, while the original is not for new designs.

Q: What is the difference between RK73H1HTTC6980F and RK73H1HTTCM6980F? A: The parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The suffix change from "C" to "CM" indicates a product line update by KOA Speer Electronics, Inc. The newer variant (RK73H1HTTCM6980F) maintains active production status, while the original has been superseded.

Q: Can AC0201FR-07698RL from YAGEO replace the KOA part? A: Yes. AC0201FR-07698RL meets all specified parameters: 698 Ohms ±1%, 0.05W, 0201 package, thick film composition, ±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -55°C ~ 155°C operating range, AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. This part is suitable for applications requiring multi-source qualification.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between the substitute parts? A: RK73H1HTTC6980F and AC0201FR-07698RL are both supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging. RK73H1HTTCM6980F packaging format is not specified in available data.

Q: Do all substitute parts meet automotive AEC-Q200 requirements? A: Yes. All three parts carry AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, making them suitable for automotive applications requiring this certification.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these parts? A: All parts are rated MSL 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions and unlimited shelf life under standard storage conditions.
