Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60D2741FRE6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 2.74 kOhms (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±1% (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.25W / 1/4W (exact match required)
• Composition: Metal Film (exact match required)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C (exact match required)
• Package configuration: Axial through-hole (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia × 0.344" L (exact match required)
• Series: RN60 military-grade (exact match required)

The primary variable distinguishing substitute parts is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Bulk). All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical across qualified substitutes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN60D2741FRE6 and RN60D2741FB14 maintain active product status and are manufactured by Vishay Dale under identical military specifications (MIL-R-10509/1). Selection between these parts is determined by procurement and assembly requirements rather than electrical performance.

RN60D2741FRE6 (Tape & Reel packaging) is suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous component feed from tape reels. RN60D2741FB14 (Bulk packaging) is appropriate for manual assembly, kit builds, or applications where individual component handling is preferred.

Both parts carry identical compliance designations: RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, and ECCN EAR99 classification. No compliance advantage exists between the two options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60D2741FB14 replace RN60D2741FRE6 in circuit applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Bulk versus Tape & Reel). Circuit performance, reliability, and specifications are equivalent.

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

A: Packaging format. RN60D2741FRE6 arrives in Tape & Reel format for automated pick-and-place assembly. RN60D2741FB14 arrives in Bulk format for manual handling and assembly.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS status (non-compliant), REACH status (Affected), ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (8533.21.0090).

Q: Which part should be selected for high-volume production?

A: RN60D2741FRE6 (Tape & Reel) is optimized for automated assembly lines. RN60D2741FB14 (Bulk) is suitable for lower-volume or manual assembly operations.

Q: Do these parts meet military specifications?

A: Yes. Both are manufactured under the RN60 series classification and comply with MIL-R-10509/1 military resistor standards.

Q: Is inventory availability a factor in selection?

A: Both parts maintain active inventory status. RN60D2741FRE6 has 1044 units in stock; RN60D2741FB14 has 1030 units in stock.
