RN60D6492FRE6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN60D6492FRE6 is a 64.9 kOhms ±1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.25W (1/4W) in axial package configuration. This component is manufactured by Vishay Dale under the military-grade RN60 series (MIL-R-10509/1) and features flame retardant coating with moisture-resistant properties suitable for military and safety-critical applications. The part maintains active product status with 1108 units currently in stock.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance and mechanical compatibility can be maintained across the same resistance value, tolerance, power rating, and package type, with variations limited to packaging format and inventory availability.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60D6492FRE6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 64.9 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)
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C (exact match required)
• Series compliance: Military, MIL-R-10509/1, RN60 (exact match required)

The only permitted variation between the main part and substitutes is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Bulk), which affects handling and delivery but does not alter electrical or mechanical performance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN60D6492FRE6 and RN60D6492FB14 are active products manufactured by Vishay Dale with identical electrical specifications and mechanical dimensions. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and supply chain logistics:

• RN60D6492FRE6 (Tape & Reel): Suitable for automated assembly processes and high-volume production environments requiring continuous feed mechanisms.
• RN60D6492FB14 (Bulk): Suitable for manual assembly, low-volume production, or applications where individual component handling is preferred.

Both parts maintain identical compliance status (RoHS non-compliant, REACH Affected) and military-grade specifications under MIL-R-10509/1 standard. Inventory availability differs between formats, with RN60D6492FRE6 at 1108 units and RN60D6492FB14 at 864 units.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60D6492FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60D6492FRE6?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with matching resistance (64.9 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), and operating range (-65°C to 175°C). The only difference is packaging format (Bulk versus Tape & Reel).

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, where components are wound on continuous tape. Bulk packaging contains loose components suitable for manual assembly or applications not requiring automated handling.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS status (non-compliant), REACH status (Affected), and military series designation (MIL-R-10509/1, RN60).

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for the RN60D6492FRE6?

A: Substitutes must match all electrical parameters (64.9 kOhms resistance, ±1% tolerance, 0.25W power rating, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient), mechanical specifications (axial package, 0.145" Dia x 0.344" L dimensions), and series compliance (Military, MIL-R-10509/1, RN60). Packaging format is the only permitted variation.

Q: Can I substitute a different resistance value or tolerance?

A: No. Substitutes must maintain exact equivalence in resistance value and tolerance. Different values or tolerances are not interchangeable and require separate component selection.
