Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60D8252FRE6 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 82.5 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: RN60 military-grade classification (exact match required)

The identified substitute part RN60D8252FB14 maintains complete electrical and mechanical equivalence. The sole distinction is packaging format: the main part is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while the substitute is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both parts originate from the same manufacturer (Vishay Dale) and base product line (RN60), ensuring functional interchangeability in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN60D8252FRE6 and RN60D8252FB14 are active products from Vishay Dale with identical electrical performance and military-grade specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by procurement and assembly requirements rather than functional capability.

The RN60D8252FRE6 (Tape & Reel packaging) is suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous component feed from tape reels. The RN60D8252FB14 (Bulk packaging) accommodates manual assembly workflows or applications where component quantities do not justify reel-based procurement.

Both parts share identical RoHS non-compliance and REACH Affected status, requiring equivalent compliance documentation and supply chain management. Inventory availability differs: 878 units of RN60D8252FRE6 and 1205 units of RN60D8252FB14 are currently in stock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60D8252FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN60D8252FRE6 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 remain unchanged.

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

A: The packaging format differs. RN60D8252FRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration for automated pick-and-place assembly. RN60D8252FB14 is supplied in Bulk packaging for manual assembly or alternative procurement workflows.

Q: Are both parts suitable for military applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are classified under the military RN60 series (MIL-R-10509/1) with identical flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety features.

Q: Do packaging differences affect component reliability or lifespan?

A: No. Packaging format does not affect component performance, reliability, or operating characteristics. Both parts maintain identical electrical specifications and temperature performance across the -65°C to 175°C operating range.

Q: What compliance considerations apply to both parts?

A: Both parts are RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. Equivalent compliance documentation and supply chain management protocols apply to both part numbers.
