RN60D1801FRE6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN60D1801FRE6 is a 1.8 kOhms ±1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.25W (1/4W) in axial package configuration. Manufactured by Vishay Dale under the military-grade RN60 series (MIL-R-10509/1), this component features flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction for military applications. The part is currently active in production with 795 units in stock. Substitute parts may be required due to packaging availability, tolerance requirements, or inventory constraints in procurement workflows.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60D1801FRE6 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Resistance Value: Must be 1.8 kOhms
• Power Rating: Must be 0.25W (1/4W)
• Package Type: Must be Axial
• Composition: Must be Metal Film
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -65°C to 175°C
• Series Compliance: Must belong to RN60 military series (MIL-R-10509/1)

Tolerance and temperature coefficient may vary within acceptable engineering margins. Packaging format (Tape & Reel vs. Bulk) does not affect electrical compatibility but impacts supply chain logistics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RN60D1801FB14 (Direct Substitute): This part is electrically and mechanically identical to the RN60D1801FRE6, with matching tolerance (±1%), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and all military specifications. The only difference is packaging format (Bulk vs. Tape & Reel). This substitute is suitable for applications where packaging format does not impose constraints. Both parts maintain identical compliance status (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected).

RN60E1801BB14 (Upgrade Substitute): This part offers improved tolerance (±0.1% vs. ±1%) and superior temperature coefficient stability (±25ppm/°C vs. ±100ppm/°C) while maintaining all other electrical and mechanical specifications. The RN60E1801BB14 is classified as an upgrade option for applications requiring tighter tolerance control or enhanced temperature stability. All military certifications, operating temperature range, and compliance status remain equivalent to the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60D1801FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60D1801FRE6?

A: Yes. Both parts are identical in all electrical and mechanical parameters. The difference is packaging format: RN60D1801FRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel format, while RN60D1801FB14 is supplied in Bulk format. Selection depends on assembly process requirements and inventory management practices.

Q: What is the difference between RN60D1801FRE6 and RN60E1801BB14?

A: The RN60E1801BB14 provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% vs. ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C vs. ±100ppm/°C). All other parameters including resistance value, power rating, package type, and operating temperature range are identical. The RN60E1801BB14 is suitable for precision applications requiring enhanced stability.

Q: Are all three parts compatible with military specifications?

A: Yes. All three parts comply with MIL-R-10509/1 military standards and belong to the RN60 series. All feature flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel (TR) and Bulk packaging formats do not affect electrical characteristics. Packaging selection is based on assembly equipment compatibility and supply chain logistics.

Q: What is the compliance status for these parts?

A: All three parts are RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. Compliance requirements must be evaluated against specific application and regional regulations.
