Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RN60C8250FB14 qualifies as a direct substitute based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters Match:

• Resistance value: 825 Ohms (identical)
• Tolerance: ±1% (identical)
• Power rating: 0.25W, 1/4W (identical)
• Composition: Metal Film (identical)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C (identical)

Mechanical Parameters Match:

• Package type: Axial (identical)
• Physical dimensions: 0.145" Dia x 0.344" L / 3.68mm x 8.74mm (identical)
• Number of terminations: 2 (identical)

Series Compliance:

• Both parts belong to the Military, MIL-R-10509/1, RN60 series
• Both feature flame retardant coating, military rating, moisture resistance, and safety construction

Packaging Difference:

• Main part: Tape & Reel (TR)
• Substitute part: Bulk

The substitution is valid for applications where packaging format does not impose constraints. The RN60C8250FB14 offers improved temperature coefficient performance (±50ppm/°C versus ±100ppm/°C), which represents an enhancement in thermal stability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN60D8250FRE6 and RN60C8250FB14 are active production parts from Vishay Dale with identical military qualification and compliance status. Selection between these parts depends on packaging requirements:

RN60D8250FRE6 is appropriate for automated assembly processes requiring tape and reel packaging format.

RN60C8250FB14 is appropriate for manual assembly, kit builds, or applications where bulk packaging is acceptable. This part offers superior temperature coefficient performance (±50ppm/°C), providing enhanced thermal stability in temperature-sensitive applications.

Both parts maintain identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected status, requiring equivalent compliance documentation for procurement and use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60C8250FB14 replace RN60D8250FRE6 in my circuit?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical with matching resistance, tolerance, power rating, temperature range, and physical dimensions. The only difference is packaging format (bulk versus tape and reel). Substitution is valid provided your assembly process accommodates bulk packaging.

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

A: The RN60D8250FRE6 has a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C, while the RN60C8250FB14 has ±50ppm/°C. The substitute part provides superior thermal stability, meaning its resistance value changes less across the operating temperature range.

Q: Are both parts military-qualified?

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

Q: What packaging format should I select?

A: RN60D8250FRE6 comes in tape and reel format, suitable for high-volume automated pick-and-place assembly. RN60C8250FB14 comes in bulk format, suitable for manual assembly, prototyping, or lower-volume applications.

Q: Do these parts have different compliance certifications?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected status. Compliance documentation requirements are equivalent for both parts.

Q: Are both parts currently available?

A: Yes. Both parts are active in production. RN60D8250FRE6 has 741 pieces in stock; RN60C8250FB14 has 828 pieces in stock.
