Engineering Selection Recommendations

CDRH73NP-821MC-B (Sumida America Components Inc.): This substitute provides electrical equivalence with matching DC resistance (6.54Ohm max) and current rating (180 mA). The part is active and ROHS3 compliant. The operating temperature range (-40°C to 100°C) is narrower than the original, with a lower maximum temperature limit of 100°C compared to 125°C. Height is reduced to 3.40mm. This part is suitable for applications where the lower temperature ceiling does not conflict with system requirements.

SRR0745A-821M (Bourns Inc.): This substitute exceeds electrical specifications with a higher current rating (220 mA) and lower DC resistance (4.6Ohm max). The part is active, ROHS3 compliant, and carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification. The operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C) matches the upper limit of the original. Height is increased to 4.70mm. This part is suitable for applications requiring enhanced current handling and automotive-grade reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CDRH73NP-821MC-B be used as a direct replacement for SPD73-824M? A: CDRH73NP-821MC-B meets the electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. However, the operating temperature range is limited to -40°C to 100°C, compared to the original -55°C to 125°C. Verify that your application does not require operation below -40°C or above 100°C.

Q: Can SRR0745A-821M be used as a direct replacement for SPD73-824M? A: SRR0745A-821M meets all electrical and mechanical compatibility criteria. The current rating (220 mA) and lower DC resistance (4.6Ohm) exceed the original specifications. The operating temperature range (-40°C to 125°C) covers the upper limit of the original. Height is 4.70mm; verify PCB layout clearance.

Q: What are the key differences between the two substitutes? A: CDRH73NP-821MC-B maintains identical DC resistance (6.54Ohm) but has a narrower temperature range and lower current rating (180 mA). SRR0745A-821M provides superior electrical performance with lower DC resistance (4.6Ohm) and higher current rating (220 mA), with full temperature range coverage and automotive qualification.

Q: Are there any compliance differences? A: Both substitutes are ROHS3 compliant, whereas the original SPD73-824M is RoHS non-compliant. SRR0745A-821M carries AEC-Q200 automotive qualification; CDRH73NP-821MC-B does not.

Q: Will the height difference affect PCB assembly? A: CDRH73NP-821MC-B is 3.40mm (0.10mm shorter than original). SRR0745A-821M is 4.70mm (0.80mm taller than original). Verify clearance with your PCB layout and component placement constraints.

Q: What is the inductance test frequency for all parts? A: All parts are tested at 1 kHz, matching the original specification.
