RN55D3011FRSL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN55D3011FRSL is a 3.01 kOhms ±1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.125W (1/8W) in axial package configuration. This component is manufactured by Vishay Dale and complies with military specification MIL-R-10509/7. The part features flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction suitable for military and high-reliability applications. The RN55D3011FRSL is currently in active production status with 1004 units available in stock.

Substitute parts are necessary when tape and reel packaging (TR) is unavailable or when cut tape (CT) packaging is preferred for specific assembly processes or inventory management requirements.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RN55D3011FRE6 qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the RN55D3011FRSL based on the following criteria:

Matching Electrical Parameters:

• Resistance value: 3.01 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C

Matching Mechanical Parameters:

• Package type: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.090" Dia x 0.240" L (2.29mm x 6.10mm)
• Number of terminations: 2

Matching Material & Compliance:

• Composition: Metal Film
• Features: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety
• Series: Military, MIL-R-10509/7, RN55
• Manufacturer: Vishay Dale

The only difference between these parts is the packaging format: RN55D3011FRSL is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while RN55D3011FRE6 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) configuration. Both parts are manufactured to identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN55D3011FRSL and RN55D3011FRE6 are active production components manufactured by Vishay Dale to identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and assembly process compatibility.

The RN55D3011FRSL in Tape & Reel format is suitable for high-volume automated assembly operations. The RN55D3011FRE6 in Cut Tape format is appropriate for lower-volume production runs, manual assembly processes, or applications where individual component handling is required.

Both parts carry identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, ECCN EAR99, and HTSUS 8533.21.0090. Neither part is subject to Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) restrictions.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN55D3011FRE6 be used as a direct replacement for RN55D3011FRSL?

A: Yes. The RN55D3011FRE6 is electrically and mechanically identical to the RN55D3011FRSL. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). Both parts meet the same electrical specifications, operating temperature range, tolerance, and military compliance requirements.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Reel (TR) and Cut Tape (CT) packaging?

A: Tape & Reel packaging supplies components on a continuous reel suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Cut Tape packaging supplies components on tape segments, typically used for manual assembly, lower-volume production, or component-level inventory management.

Q: Are there any compatibility issues when switching between these two part numbers?

A: No compatibility issues exist. Both parts are identical axial resistors with the same lead configuration, physical dimensions, and electrical characteristics. The switch affects only the packaging format and assembly process compatibility.

Q: Do both parts comply with military specifications?

A: Yes. Both RN55D3011FRSL and RN55D3011FRE6 are manufactured to MIL-R-10509/7 specification and are part of the RN55 military resistor series. Both carry identical compliance markings and certifications.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on manufacturing process requirements. For automated assembly with reel-fed equipment, use RN55D3011FRSL. For manual assembly or lower-volume applications, use RN55D3011FRE6. Both are equally suitable from an electrical and reliability standpoint.
