RP73PF2A26K1BTDF – TE CONNECTIVITY

Overview

The TE Connectivity RP73PF2A26K1BTDF is a high-precision 26.1 kΩ surface-mount thin-film resistor, critical for applications demanding stringent linearity and minimal noise. Its defining characteristic is the exceptional 0.1% tolerance and a low 25 PPM/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring stable resistance values across a wide operating range of -55°C to +155°C. A key design consideration when utilizing such precision components is managing parasitic inductance and capacitance, especially in high-frequency circuits; while the 0805 (2012 metric) package offers good thermal dissipation for its 250mW power rating, careful PCB layout is paramount to preserve its performance integrity.
