Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of RN60D1541FRE6 is determined by the following critical parameters that must remain constant:

• Resistance value: 1.54 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Package type: Axial
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia × 0.344" L
• Series compliance: MIL-R-10509/1, RN60
• Features: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety

The identified substitute part RN60D1541FB14 maintains all electrical and mechanical parameters. The only difference is the packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while the substitute is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale under the same military series specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN60D1541FRE6 and RN60D1541FB14 are active production parts manufactured by Vishay Dale. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements:

• RN60D1541FRE6 (Tape & Reel): Suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous reel feeding
• RN60D1541FB14 (Bulk): Suitable for manual assembly, kit builds, or applications where reel packaging is not required

Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliant status, REACH Affected designation, ECCN EAR99 classification, and HTSUS code 8533.21.0090. Military-grade construction and MIL-R-10509/1 compliance are maintained across both variants.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60D1541FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60D1541FRE6?

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 packaging format does not impose constraints.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous reels suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Bulk packaging supplies loose components suitable for manual assembly or kit applications. Both formats contain the same component with identical specifications.

Q: Are both parts military-grade?

A: Yes. Both RN60D1541FRE6 and RN60D1541FB14 are manufactured under the military RN60 series per MIL-R-10509/1 specification and include flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction.

Q: Do these parts have identical temperature performance?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -65°C to 175°C with ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring identical thermal stability across the operating range.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to both parts?

A: Both parts are RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, classified as ECCN EAR99, and carry HTSUS code 8533.21.0090.
