Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the RN60C6810FRE6 is determined by equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 681 Ohms
• 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 × 0.344" L
• Series compliance: MIL-R-10509/1, RN60 base product

The identified substitute part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary difference is packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel format, while the substitute is available in Bulk packaging. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale under the same RN60 military series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN60C6810FRE6 and RN60C6810FB14 are active production parts from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements and procurement logistics:

• Select RN60C6810FRE6 when Tape & Reel packaging is required for automated assembly processes.
• Select RN60C6810FB14 when Bulk packaging is acceptable and higher inventory availability is a priority.

Both parts maintain compliance with MIL-R-10509/1 military specifications and are subject to identical regulatory classifications (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, ECCN EAR99).
