• Composition: Metal Film (identical)
• Package type: Axial (identical)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C (identical)
• Series classification: Military, MIL-R-10509/1, RN60 (identical)
• Features: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety (identical)

Differing Parameters:

• Tolerance: RN60E1002BRE6 provides ±0.1% versus RN60C1002DR36 at ±0.5%
• Temperature coefficient: RN60E1002BRE6 at ±25ppm/°C versus RN60C1002DR36 at ±50ppm/°C
• Packaging format: RN60E1002BRE6 supplied in Cut Tape (CT) versus RN60C1002DR36 in Tape & Reel (TR)

The RN60E1002BRE6 represents an upgrade path with tighter tolerance and improved temperature stability while maintaining all core electrical and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN60C1002DR36 and RN60E1002BRE6 are active production components from Vishay Dale's military-grade RN60 series. Selection between these parts depends on application requirements and packaging constraints:

RN60C1002DR36 is appropriate for applications where standard ±0.5% tolerance and ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient meet circuit specifications and where Tape & Reel packaging format is required for automated assembly processes.

RN60E1002BRE6 is suitable for applications requiring tighter tolerance control (±0.1%) and improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C). This part is supplied in Cut Tape format, which may require manual handling or alternative assembly accommodation.

Both parts maintain identical compliance status (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected) and military-grade certifications. Physical dimensions and thermal operating range are equivalent across both options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60E1002BRE6 replace RN60C1002DR36 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value, power rating, operating temperature range, and axial package configuration. The RN60E1002BRE6 provides superior tolerance (±0.1% vs ±0.5%) and temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs ±50ppm/°C), making it functionally compatible and electrically superior for most applications.

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-volume automated assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on tape segments, typically used for lower-volume or manual assembly processes. Both formats contain identical components.

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

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected status. Both are certified to MIL-R-10509/1 military specifications and feature identical flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety certifications.

Q: Which part should be selected for high-precision circuit applications?

A: The RN60E1002BRE6 is the appropriate selection for applications requiring tighter tolerance control and improved temperature stability due to its ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 0.145" diameter × 0.344" length (3.68mm × 8.74mm) in axial configuration, ensuring identical PCB footprint and mechanical fit.
