Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the CMF60348K00FKBF is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the CMF60 series. The substitute part CMF60348K00FKR6 maintains identical electrical specifications: 348 kOhms resistance value, ±1% tolerance, 1W power rating, metal film composition, and ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Both parts operate across the same temperature range (-55°C to 175°C) and share identical physical dimensions (0.145" Dia x 0.344" L).

The primary difference between these parts is packaging configuration. The main part (CMF60348K00FKBF) is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the substitute (CMF60348K00FKR6) is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale under the same CMF series designation and maintain identical mechanical fit and electrical performance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the CMF60348K00FKBF and CMF60348K00FKR6 are active production parts from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and supply availability.

The CMF60348K00FKBF in Bulk packaging is suitable for high-volume manufacturing operations where components are supplied in loose form. The CMF60348K00FKR6 in Cut Tape (CT) packaging is appropriate for automated assembly processes and applications requiring component tape-and-reel format.

Both parts maintain RoHS non-compliant status and REACH Affected classification. Neither part introduces compliance differences that would affect component selection. The substitute part offers higher current inventory availability (2535 units versus 1107 units), which may provide supply chain advantages for procurement planning.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can CMF60348K00FKR6 be used as a direct replacement for CMF60348K00FKBF?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Bulk). Direct substitution is valid for applications where the packaging format does not constrain assembly processes.

Q: What is the difference between Bulk and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Bulk packaging supplies components in loose form, typically used for manual assembly or high-volume operations with custom handling. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on continuous tape, designed for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Both formats contain the same component.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 0.145" diameter by 0.344" length (3.68mm x 8.74mm). They are mechanically interchangeable in PCB layouts and mechanical assemblies.

Q: Do these parts have identical electrical performance?

A: Yes. Both parts specify 348 kOhms ±1% resistance, 1W power rating, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -55°C to 175°C operating temperature range. Electrical performance is identical.

Q: Which part should be selected for automated assembly?

A: The CMF60348K00FKR6 in Cut Tape packaging is designed for automated assembly processes. The CMF60348K00FKBF in Bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly or operations with custom component handling systems.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS and REACH status. No compliance advantages exist between the two options.
