RN60D3012FRE6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN60D3012FRE6 is a 30.1 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 suitable for military and high-reliability applications. The part maintains active product status with 986 units currently in stock. Substitute parts are identified when packaging format changes or when equivalent electrical and mechanical specifications are maintained across the RN60 series.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the RN60D3012FRE6 product line is determined by the following electrical and mechanical parameters:

• Resistance value: 30.1 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)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C (exact match required)
• Series classification: RN60 military-grade (exact match required)

The primary variable between the main part and identified substitutes is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Bulk). Both electrical specifications and physical dimensions remain identical across substitute relationships.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN60D3012FRE6 and RN60C3012FB14 maintain identical electrical performance and physical dimensions. Selection between these parts is determined by procurement and assembly requirements:

RN60D3012FRE6 is specified when tape and reel packaging is required for automated assembly processes or high-volume production environments.

RN60C3012FB14 is specified when bulk packaging is acceptable for manual assembly, repair operations, or lower-volume applications.

Both parts carry active product status and maintain equivalent military-grade specifications under MIL-R-10509/1. Compliance certifications (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected, ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8533.21.0090) are identical across both part numbers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60C3012FB14 replace RN60D3012FRE6 in circuit design?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Bulk versus Tape & Reel). Circuit performance is unaffected by this packaging distinction.

Q: What is the difference in temperature coefficient between these parts?

A: RN60D3012FRE6 has a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C, while RN60C3012FB14 has ±50ppm/°C. This represents a tighter temperature stability specification for RN60C3012FB14. Both operate within the same temperature range (-65°C to 175°C).

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 automated assembly?

A: RN60D3012FRE6 in Tape & Reel packaging is designed for automated pick-and-place assembly processes. RN60C3012FB14 in Bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly or repair applications.

Q: Are physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts measure 0.145" diameter by 0.344" length (3.68mm x 8.74mm) in axial configuration.
