Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60C2211FRE6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 2.21 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Package type: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia x 0.344" L (3.68mm x 8.74mm)
• Series compliance: MIL-R-10509/1, RN60

The RN60C2211FB14 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The only difference is packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while the substitute is supplied in Bulk format. Both maintain the same component specifications and military-grade performance characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN60C2211FRE6 and RN60C2211FB14 are active products from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts depends on procurement and assembly requirements:

The RN60C2211FRE6 in Tape & Reel format is suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous component feeding. The RN60C2211FB14 in Bulk format is appropriate for manual assembly, repair operations, or applications where tape packaging is not required.

Both parts maintain RoHS non-compliant status and REACH Affected classification. Both are subject to EAR99 export control classification. Component selection should account for assembly methodology and supply chain logistics rather than electrical performance, as both parts deliver identical functional characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60C2211FB14 replace RN60C2211FRE6 in production assembly?

A: Electrical and mechanical compatibility is complete. The RN60C2211FB14 is functionally equivalent. However, the Bulk packaging format requires manual component handling rather than automated tape feeding. Assembly process modifications may be necessary.

Q: Are there differences in component performance between Tape & Reel and Bulk packaging?

A: No. Packaging format does not affect electrical performance, tolerance, temperature characteristics, or reliability. Both formats contain identical RN60 series resistors with the same specifications.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for the RN60C2211FRE6?

A: Substitutes must maintain exact equivalence in resistance value (2.21 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), composition (metal film), temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), and axial package dimensions (0.145" Dia x 0.344" L). Packaging format is the only variable parameter.

Q: Are both parts suitable for military applications?

A: Yes. Both the RN60C2211FRE6 and RN60C2211FB14 comply with MIL-R-10509/1 specification and are designated as military-grade components with flame retardant coating and moisture resistance.

Q: What is the inventory status for these parts?

A: The RN60C2211FRE6 (Tape & Reel) has 946 units in stock. The RN60C2211FB14 (Bulk) has 930 units in stock. Both maintain active product status.
