RN60C6811FRE6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN60C6811FRE6 is a 6.81 kOhms ±1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.25W (1/4W) in axial package configuration. This component is manufactured by Vishay Dale and complies with military specification MIL-R-10509/1. The resistor features flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction suitable for military and high-reliability applications. The part is currently active in production with 999 pieces available in stock.

Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary when the original specification requires upgraded tolerance performance, alternative packaging formats, or inventory optimization while maintaining electrical and mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RN60C6811BB14 is a qualified substitute for the RN60C6811FRE6 in applications where tolerance performance can be improved without circuit redesign. Both parts maintain active production status and identical compliance profiles under RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected classifications.

Selection between these parts depends on packaging requirements: the RN60C6811FRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel format suitable for automated assembly processes, while the RN60C6811BB14 is supplied in Bulk format. The tolerance upgrade from ±1% to ±0.1% in the RN60C6811BB14 provides enhanced precision for applications requiring tighter resistance values within the same military-grade specification framework.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60C6811BB14 replace RN60C6811FRE6 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The RN60C6811BB14 is electrically and mechanically compatible with the RN60C6811FRE6. Both components share identical resistance, power rating, package type, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and physical dimensions. The substitute part offers improved tolerance performance at ±0.1% versus ±1%.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two parts?

A: The primary differences are tolerance specification and packaging format. The RN60C6811BB14 provides ±0.1% tolerance compared to ±1% in the RN60C6811FRE6, and is supplied in Bulk packaging rather than Tape & Reel format.

Q: Are both parts military-grade components?

A: Yes. Both the RN60C6811FRE6 and RN60C6811BB14 comply with military specification MIL-R-10509/1 and feature flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Bulk) does not affect electrical or mechanical performance. The selection depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management practices.

Q: Are there compliance considerations when substituting these parts?

A: Both parts share identical RoHS and REACH compliance status (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected). No additional compliance review is required for substitution.
