RN65C2001FRSL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN65C2001FRSL is a 2 kOhms ±1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.5W (1/2W) in axial package configuration. This component is manufactured by Vishay Dale and complies with military specification MIL-R-10509/2. The resistor features flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-grade construction suitable for military and high-reliability applications. The part maintains active product status with 838 units in current inventory.

Substitute parts are identified when packaging format differs while all critical electrical and mechanical parameters remain identical, enabling component sourcing flexibility across supply channels.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN65C2001FRSL is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Resistance value: 2 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.5W (1/2W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Package configuration: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.180" Dia × 0.562" L (4.57mm × 14.27mm)
• Termination count: 2
• Military series compliance: MIL-R-10509/2, RN65

The identified substitute part RN65C2001FB14 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The distinction between the main part and substitute lies exclusively in 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 (RN65).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RN65C2001FRSL and RN65C2001FB14 maintain active product status and are manufactured by Vishay Dale under the military-grade RN65 series. Selection between these parts is determined by procurement and assembly requirements rather than electrical or mechanical performance.

The RN65C2001FRSL in Tape & Reel packaging is suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous component feed. The RN65C2001FB14 in Bulk packaging accommodates manual assembly workflows or applications where tape-and-reel format is not required.

Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected designations. Compliance requirements must be evaluated at the system level prior to component selection.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN65C2001FB14 replace RN65C2001FRSL in circuit applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The 2 kOhms resistance, ±1% tolerance, 0.5W power rating, metal film composition, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, axial package configuration, and physical dimensions are equivalent. Substitution is valid for all circuit-level applications.

Q: What is the difference between these two part numbers?

A: The sole difference is packaging format. RN65C2001FRSL is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration for automated pick-and-place assembly. RN65C2001FB14 is supplied in Bulk packaging for manual assembly or alternative handling methods. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there inventory or lead time considerations?

A: Current inventory shows 1112 units of RN65C2001FB14 (Bulk) versus 838 units of RN65C2001FRSL (Tape & Reel). Availability may influence sourcing decisions, but component performance remains equivalent.

Q: Do both parts comply with military specifications?

A: Both parts comply with MIL-R-10509/2 military specification and are part of the Vishay Dale RN65 military-grade resistor series. Both maintain active product status.

Q: What are the compliance implications of RoHS non-compliant status?

A: Both parts carry RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected designations. Applications subject to RoHS or REACH regulations must evaluate compliance requirements independently of component selection between these two equivalent parts.
