Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RN55C2000FRSL and RN55C2000FRE6 are parametric equivalents within the Vishay Dale RN55 military resistor series. Substitution is valid based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 200 Ohms
• Identical tolerance: ±1%
• Identical power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Identical composition: Metal Film
• Identical temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C
• Identical operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Identical physical dimensions: 0.090" Dia × 0.240" L (2.29mm × 6.10mm)
• Identical package type: Axial
• Identical series designation: Military, MIL-R-10509/7, RN55
• Identical features: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety

The only difference between these parts is the packaging format: RN55C2000FRSL is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while RN55C2000FRE6 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. Both maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN55C2000FRSL and RN55C2000FRE6 are active production parts from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability:

RN55C2000FRSL is appropriate for automated assembly processes requiring Tape & Reel packaging format with current inventory of 721 pieces.

RN55C2000FRE6 is appropriate for manual assembly or lower-volume applications utilizing Cut Tape packaging format with higher inventory availability of 2688 pieces.

Both parts maintain RoHS non-compliant status, REACH Affected designation, and EAR99 ECCN classification. No compliance or certification differences exist between these alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN55C2000FRE6 be used as a direct replacement for RN55C2000FRSL in circuit design?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical characteristics, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. Circuit performance will be identical.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous tape wound on reels, suitable for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on tape segments cut to specific lengths, suitable for manual assembly or lower-volume production runs.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both RN55C2000FRSL and RN55C2000FRE6 have identical axial dimensions of 0.090" Dia × 0.240" L (2.29mm × 6.10mm), ensuring identical PCB footprint compatibility.

Q: Do these parts have different compliance or certification status?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS non-compliant status, REACH Affected designation, and EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: Which part should be selected for inventory planning?

A: RN55C2000FRE6 offers higher current inventory (2688 pieces) compared to RN55C2000FRSL (721 pieces). Selection should align with assembly process requirements and lead time constraints.
