Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the RN55C2000FR36 is determined by equivalence in the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 200 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Package configuration: Axial through-hole
• Physical dimensions: 0.090" Dia × 0.240" L
• Military series compliance: MIL-R-10509/7, RN55
• Feature set: Flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, safety rating

The RN55C2000FRE6 qualifies as a parametric equivalent. The only distinction between these parts is the packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while the substitute is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) configuration. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, mechanical dimensions, and material composition.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN55C2000FR36 and RN55C2000FRE6 are active production components from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability:

• RN55C2000FR36 (Tape & Reel): Suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous tape-fed component delivery.
• RN55C2000FRE6 (Cut Tape): Suitable for manual assembly, small-batch production, or applications where individual component handling is preferred.

Both parts maintain compliance with MIL-R-10509/7 military specifications and share identical RoHS and REACH status. No electrical performance difference exists between these alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN55C2000FRE6 be used as a direct replacement for RN55C2000FR36?

A: Yes. The RN55C2000FRE6 is electrically and mechanically identical to the RN55C2000FR36. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). Both parts have identical resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on a continuous reel suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on tape segments, typically used for manual assembly or lower-volume production runs.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS status (RoHS non-compliant), REACH status (REACH Affected), ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8533.21.0090).

Q: What military specifications do these resistors meet?

A: Both parts comply with MIL-R-10509/7 specifications and are part of the RN55 military resistor series. They feature flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety ratings required for military and aerospace applications.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in circuit designs?

A: Yes. From an electrical standpoint, these parts are fully interchangeable. Circuit performance will be identical. Assembly method selection depends on production equipment and volume requirements.
