Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60C8062FRE6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 80.6 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W/1/4W (exact match required)
• Composition: Metal Film (exact match required)
• Package configuration: Axial (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C (exact match required)
• Series designation: RN60/MIL-R-10509/1 (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia × 0.344" L (exact match required)

The identified substitute part RN60C8062FB14 meets all electrical and mechanical equivalence criteria. The only difference between the main part and substitute is the packaging format: RN60C8062FRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while RN60C8062FB14 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale under identical specifications and maintain active product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN60C8062FRE6 and RN60C8062FB14 are active products manufactured by Vishay Dale with identical electrical performance and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements and supply chain logistics:

• RN60C8062FRE6 (Tape & Reel): Suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous reel-fed component dispensing. Recommended for high-volume production environments with pick-and-place equipment.

• RN60C8062FB14 (Bulk): Suitable for manual assembly, low-volume production, or applications where reel packaging is not required. Provides higher current inventory availability (1462 units versus 987 units).

Both parts comply with MIL-R-10509/1 military specifications and maintain identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected status. No electrical or thermal performance differences exist between the two part numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60C8062FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60C8062FRE6?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Bulk versus Tape & Reel). Substitution is valid for any application where the component specifications match the circuit requirements.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous plastic tape wound on reels, designed for automated assembly equipment. Bulk packaging supplies loose components in standard quantities. Both formats contain identical components with identical specifications.

Q: Are there any performance differences between these part numbers?

A: No. Both parts have identical resistance value (80.6 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), and all other electrical and mechanical parameters.

Q: Which part should be selected for automated assembly?

A: RN60C8062FRE6 (Tape & Reel) is the standard choice for automated pick-and-place assembly processes. RN60C8062FB14 (Bulk) requires manual handling or custom feeding systems.

Q: Are both parts currently available?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain active product status. RN60C8062FRE6 has 987 units in inventory, and RN60C8062FB14 has 1462 units in inventory.

Q: Do these parts meet military specifications?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured under the RN60 series (MIL-R-10509/1) military specification and include flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction.
