Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN50C1000FBSL is determined by strict equivalence across the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance value: 100 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.05W (1/20W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Package type: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.065" Dia x 0.150" L (1.65mm x 3.81mm)
• Features: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety
• Series compliance: MIL-R-10509/8, RN50

The identified substitute part RN50C1000FRE6 meets all electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is packaging format: the main part is supplied in Bulk packaging, while the substitute is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale and share identical electrical characteristics and physical dimensions.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN50C1000FBSL and RN50C1000FRE6 are Active product status components manufactured by Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and supply chain considerations:

• RN50C1000FBSL (Bulk packaging) is suitable for high-volume applications or when bulk quantities are required for assembly operations.
• RN50C1000FRE6 (Cut Tape packaging) is suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly processes and tape-reel handling systems.

Both parts maintain identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. No electrical performance difference exists between the two part numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN50C1000FRE6 be used as a direct replacement for RN50C1000FBSL?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Bulk). Direct substitution is valid for all circuit applications.

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

A: Bulk packaging supplies loose components suitable for manual assembly or bulk handling. Cut Tape packaging supplies components on continuous tape suitable for automated assembly equipment. The electrical and physical characteristics of the resistor itself are identical.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS and REACH compliance status. Both are RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in military applications?

A: Yes. Both parts meet MIL-R-10509/8 specifications and are classified as military-grade components. Packaging format does not affect military qualification.

Q: What determines if a part can substitute for RN50C1000FBSL?

A: Substitution requires exact equivalence in resistance value (100 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.05W), composition (Metal Film), temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), package type (Axial), physical dimensions (0.065" Dia x 0.150" L), and features (Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety).
