RN60C1001BRE6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN60C1001BRE6 is a 1 kOhms ±0.1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.25W (1/4W) in axial package configuration. Manufactured by Vishay Dale, this component is part of the military-grade RN60 series compliant with MIL-R-10509/1 specifications. The part features flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction suitable for military and high-reliability applications. As an active product with 998 units in stock, substitute parts may be required due to packaging format preferences, inventory constraints, or specific application requirements while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RN60E1001BB14 qualifies as a direct substitute for the RN60C1001BRE6 based on the following critical parameters:

• Resistance Value: Both parts are 1 kOhms
• Tolerance: Both maintain ±0.1% tolerance
• Power Rating: Both are rated at 0.25W (1/4W)
• Composition: Both are metal film construction
• Package Configuration: Both use axial through-hole package
• Operating Temperature: Both operate across -65°C to 175°C
• Series Compliance: Both belong to the military RN60 series and comply with MIL-R-10509/1
• Features: Both include flame retardant coating, military-grade construction, moisture resistance, and safety ratings

The primary difference between these parts is the packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Bulk) and a minor improvement in temperature coefficient specification (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C for the substitute).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN60C1001BRE6 and RN60E1001BB14 are active products from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements:

• RN60C1001BRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel format, suitable for automated assembly processes and high-volume production environments.
• RN60E1001BB14 is supplied in Bulk packaging, suitable for manual assembly, prototyping, or applications where individual component handling is preferred.

The RN60E1001BB14 offers a marginal advantage with a tighter temperature coefficient specification (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), which may provide improved stability in temperature-sensitive applications. Both parts maintain full compliance with military specifications MIL-R-10509/1 and are subject to identical regulatory constraints (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60E1001BB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60C1001BRE6 in circuit applications?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical electrical specifications (1 kOhms ±0.1%, 0.25W, metal film, -65°C to 175°C operating range) and identical physical dimensions. They are mechanically and electrically interchangeable in all circuit applications.

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

A: Tape & Reel packaging (RN60C1001BRE6) supplies components on continuous carrier tape wound on reels, optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Bulk packaging (RN60E1001BB14) supplies loose components in containers, suitable for manual assembly or small-batch operations.

Q: Does the temperature coefficient difference affect substitution compatibility?

A: No. The RN60E1001BB14 has a superior (tighter) temperature coefficient of ±25ppm/°C compared to the RN60C1001BRE6 at ±50ppm/°C. This means the substitute part will perform equal to or better than the original in temperature-dependent applications. Both values remain within acceptable ranges for military-grade applications.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, military series designation (MIL-R-10509/1), and all safety and environmental certifications. Both are active products from the same manufacturer.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in automated assembly?

A: RN60C1001BRE6 in Tape & Reel format is optimized for automated assembly. RN60E1001BB14 in Bulk format requires manual feeding into assembly equipment. Selection depends on your production process capabilities.
