Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the RN55D6982FRE6 is based on strict equivalence of the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance value: 69.8 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Package configuration: Axial through-hole
• Physical dimensions: 0.090" Dia × 0.240" L
• Series compliance: Military RN55, MIL-R-10509/7
• Features: Flame retardant coating, military grade, moisture resistant

The identified substitute part RN55D6982FB14 maintains all electrical specifications and physical dimensions. The only difference is packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while the substitute is supplied in Bulk format. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale and share identical base product designation (RN55).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN55D6982FRE6 and RN55D6982FB14 are active production components from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements:

• RN55D6982FRE6 is appropriate for automated assembly processes requiring tape and reel packaging format
• RN55D6982FB14 is appropriate for manual assembly, kit builds, or applications where bulk packaging is acceptable

Both parts comply with MIL-R-10509/7 military specifications and maintain equivalent performance across all operating conditions. RoHS non-compliance status is identical for both parts. REACH and ECCN classifications are equivalent.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN55D6982FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN55D6982FRE6?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Bulk). Direct substitution is valid provided the receiving application can accommodate the bulk packaging format.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Resistance value, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and all other electrical parameters are identical. Physical dimensions and axial package configuration are identical.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference?

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is optimized for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly, lower-volume production, or component kits. The electrical and mechanical performance of the component itself is unaffected by packaging format.

Q: Are both parts suitable for military applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured to MIL-R-10509/7 specifications and include military-grade features including flame retardant coating and moisture resistance. Both maintain active production status.

Q: What should be considered when selecting between these parts?

A: Selection is based on assembly process requirements and packaging availability. If automated assembly with tape and reel equipment is required, use RN55D6982FRE6. If bulk packaging is acceptable or preferred, use RN55D6982FB14. Inventory levels should also be considered based on project timeline and quantity requirements.
