KOA Speer Electronics, Inc.
AEC-Q200 qualified upgrade from the same manufacturer with improved tolerance and temperature stability.
RK73B1ETTP472J is a 4.7kΩ, 5%, 0.1W, 0402 thick film resistor from KOA Speer, qualified for automotive use. Several pin-compatible alternatives exist, with RK73H1ETTP4701F offering a direct upgrade path.
Multiple options exist with matching or better electrical specs.
The 0402 package is a standard, widely available footprint.
While alternatives exist, verifying AEC-Q200 qualification may limit options.
Direct replacement for RK73B1ETTP472J should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Use RK73H1ETTP4701F from the same manufacturer for a direct, qualified upgrade path with better tolerance and TCR.
The main risk is using a non-AEC-Q200 qualified part in an automotive application that requires it.
