Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RN60D20R0FB14 qualifies as a direct substitute for the RN60D20R0FRE6 based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 20 Ohms
• Identical tolerance: ±1%
• Identical power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Identical composition: Metal Film
• Identical temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Identical operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Identical package type: Axial
• Identical physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia x 0.344" L (3.68mm x 8.74mm)
• Identical series designation: Military, MIL-R-10509/1, RN60
• Identical features: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety

The only difference between these parts is the packaging format: RN60D20R0FRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while RN60D20R0FB14 is supplied in Bulk format. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance and mechanical specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN60D20R0FRE6 and RN60D20R0FB14 are active production parts from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability:

• Select RN60D20R0FRE6 when Tape & Reel packaging is required for automated assembly processes.
• Select RN60D20R0FB14 when Bulk packaging is acceptable or preferred for manual assembly or lower-volume applications.

Both parts maintain identical compliance status (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected) and are suitable for military and aerospace applications requiring MIL-R-10509/1 compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60D20R0FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60D20R0FRE6?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Bulk vs. Tape & Reel). Substitution is valid provided the packaging format is compatible with your assembly process.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is designed for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly or applications where automated handling is not required. Both formats contain the same component with identical specifications.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS and REACH compliance status. Both are RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in military applications?

A: Yes, provided the application requirements do not specify a particular packaging format. Both parts comply with MIL-R-10509/1 specifications and are suitable for military and aerospace applications.

Q: What inventory levels are available?

A: RN60D20R0FRE6 (Tape & Reel) has 1026 units in stock. RN60D20R0FB14 (Bulk) has 1831 units in stock.
