Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RN55D2003FR36 are classified based on the following allowed parameters:

Parametric Equivalent (RN55D2003FRE6): Maintains identical electrical specifications (200 kOhms, ±1% tolerance, 0.125W power rating, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient) and physical dimensions. The substitution is valid based on matching resistance value, tolerance, power rating, composition, operating temperature range, and package type. The difference is packaging format: Cut Tape (CT) versus Tape & Reel (TR).

Upgrade Substitute (RN55E2003BB14): Maintains identical resistance value (200 kOhms), power rating (0.125W), composition (metal film), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), and physical dimensions. This part offers improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) and superior temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±100ppm/°C). The substitution is valid for applications where tighter tolerance and lower temperature drift are acceptable. Packaging format is Bulk.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RN55D2003FRE6 Selection: Use this parametric equivalent when Cut Tape packaging format is required instead of Tape & Reel. All electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical to the main part. Both parts maintain active product status and identical compliance classifications.

RN55E2003BB14 Selection: Use this upgrade substitute when circuit design permits tighter tolerance (±0.1%) and lower temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C). This part is suitable for precision applications requiring enhanced stability. Bulk packaging format applies. All parts maintain active status and identical regulatory compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN55D2003FRE6 be used as a direct replacement for RN55D2003FR36?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical specifications (200 kOhms, ±1%, 0.125W) and physical dimensions. The only difference is packaging format: Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel. Component-level performance is equivalent.

Q: What is the primary advantage of RN55E2003BB14 over the main part?

A: RN55E2003BB14 offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and superior temperature stability (±25ppm/°C versus ±100ppm/°C). These specifications are beneficial for precision measurement circuits and applications with stringent drift requirements.

Q: Are all three parts compatible with the same PCB footprint?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical physical dimensions (0.090" Dia x 0.240" L) and axial package type, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility on the same PCB layout.

Q: Do packaging format differences affect electrical performance?

A: No. Packaging format (Tape & Reel, Cut Tape, or Bulk) affects only supply and handling logistics. Electrical and thermal performance remain identical across all three parts.

Q: What compliance considerations apply to all substitute parts?

A: All three parts maintain identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected status. Regulatory compliance profiles are consistent across the RN55D2003FR36, RN55D2003FRE6, and RN55E2003BB14.
