Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the RL07S272JR36 is based on the following critical parameters that must remain constant or improve:

• Resistance Value: Must be 2.7 kOhms
• Power Rating: Must be 0.25W (1/4W) minimum
• Composition: Must be Metal Film
• Package Type: Must be Axial
• Physical Dimensions: Must be 0.090" Dia x 0.240" L (2.29mm x 6.10mm)
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -65°C to 175°C
• Temperature Coefficient: Must be ±200ppm/°C or better
• Series Compliance: Must meet MIL-PRF-22684/01 specifications

The RL07S272GB14 qualifies as a substitute because it maintains all critical electrical and mechanical parameters while offering improved tolerance (±2% versus ±5%), providing enhanced precision for applications requiring tighter component specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RL07S272JR36 and RL07S272GB14 are active production parts manufactured by Vishay Dale under the same military series designation. Selection between these parts should be based on application tolerance requirements and packaging logistics:

• RL07S272JR36 is appropriate for applications where ±5% tolerance meets circuit specifications and tape & reel packaging is preferred for automated assembly processes.
• RL07S272GB14 is suitable for applications requiring tighter tolerance control (±2%) and where bulk packaging accommodates assembly workflows.

Both parts maintain identical electrical performance across the full operating temperature range and comply with MIL-PRF-22684/01 military specifications. RoHS non-compliance status is consistent across both parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RL07S272GB14 be used as a direct replacement for RL07S272JR36?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value, power rating, physical dimensions, operating temperature range, and military series compliance. The primary difference is tolerance specification (±2% versus ±5%) and packaging format (bulk versus tape & reel). The substitute part offers improved precision.

Q: What is the significance of the tolerance difference between these parts?

A: Tolerance defines the acceptable deviation from the nominal 2.7 kOhms resistance value. RL07S272JR36 allows ±135 ohms deviation, while RL07S272GB14 allows ±54 ohms deviation. Applications requiring precise resistance values benefit from the tighter tolerance of RL07S272GB14.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 0.090" diameter by 0.240" length (2.29mm x 6.10mm), ensuring mechanical compatibility in PCB layouts and through-hole assembly processes.

Q: What is the difference between tape & reel and bulk packaging?

A: Tape & reel packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment, while bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly or alternative handling methods. Packaging selection depends on manufacturing process requirements.

Q: Do both parts meet military specifications?

A: Yes. Both RL07S272JR36 and RL07S272GB14 comply with MIL-PRF-22684/01 military specifications and share identical features including flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety construction.
