RN60E1002DB14 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN60E1002DB14 is a 10 kOhms ±0.5% 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 certification suitable for military and high-reliability applications. The part maintains active product status with 839 units in current inventory. Substitute parts may be required due to packaging availability, tolerance requirements, or inventory constraints in specific procurement channels.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN60E1002DB14 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 10 kOhms
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Package type: Axial
• Composition: Metal Film
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Series compliance: Military, MIL-R-10509/1, RN60

Allowable Variation Parameters:

• Tolerance: May be tighter (lower value) than ±0.5%
• Packaging format: May differ (Bulk to Cut Tape)
• Temperature coefficient: ±25ppm/°C maintained

The RN60E1002BRE6 qualifies as a direct substitute by maintaining all mandatory parameters while offering improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±0.5%) and alternative packaging availability (Cut Tape versus Bulk).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN60E1002DB14 and RN60E1002BRE6 maintain identical military-grade specifications, operating parameters, and compliance certifications. Selection between these parts should be based on:

RN60E1002DB14 (Main Part): Select when bulk packaging format is required for high-volume assembly operations or when specific procurement contracts mandate this exact part number.

RN60E1002BRE6 (Substitute): Select when tighter tolerance specification (±0.1%) is required for precision circuit applications, when Cut Tape packaging format aligns with automated assembly processes, or when higher inventory availability (2814 units) supports shorter lead times. Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected designations, requiring equivalent compliance documentation for regulated markets.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN60E1002BRE6 be used as a direct replacement for RN60E1002DB14?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (10 kOhms), power rating (0.25W), package type (Axial), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), and military series compliance (MIL-R-10509/1, RN60). The RN60E1002BRE6 offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±0.5%), making it functionally compatible and electrically superior for precision applications.

Q: What is the difference between Bulk and Cut Tape packaging?

A: Bulk packaging supplies loose components suitable for manual assembly or bin storage. Cut Tape (CT) packaging provides components on continuous tape in standardized quantities, optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Both formats contain identical components; packaging selection depends on assembly methodology and inventory management requirements.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both RN60E1002DB14 and RN60E1002BRE6 carry identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected designations. Both are classified under ECCN EAR99 and HTSUS 8533.21.0090. Equivalent compliance documentation applies to both parts.

Q: Why would I choose the main part over the substitute if the substitute has better tolerance?

A: Selection depends on procurement specifications and circuit requirements. If the design tolerance budget accommodates ±0.5% accuracy, the main part may be specified to maintain consistency with existing inventory systems or contractual obligations. If tighter tolerance (±0.1%) is beneficial or required, the substitute provides improved performance without compromising any other parameter.

Q: Are both parts currently in active production?

A: Yes. Both RN60E1002DB14 and RN60E1002BRE6 maintain Active product status from Vishay Dale, with current inventory availability (839 and 2814 units respectively) supporting immediate procurement.
