RN65D2000FR36 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN65D2000FR36 is a 200 Ohms ±1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.5W (1/2W) in axial package configuration. Manufactured by Vishay Dale under the military-grade RN65 series (MIL-R-10509/2), this component features flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety-rated construction suitable for military and high-reliability applications. The part is currently active in production with 990 pieces available in tape and reel packaging.

Equivalent and substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications (resistance value, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range) and mechanical compatibility (axial package, through-hole termination, physical dimensions). Packaging format variations and resistance value alternatives within the same series are documented for design flexibility and supply chain optimization.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution relationships for the RN65D2000FR36 are established based on the following criteria:

Direct Equivalent (Same Electrical & Mechanical Specifications):

• Identical resistance value: 200 Ohms
• Identical tolerance: ±1%
• Identical power rating: 0.5W
• Identical temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Identical operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Identical package: Axial through-hole
• Identical physical dimensions: 0.180" Dia x 0.562" L
• Identical composition: Metal Film
• Identical series: RN65 (MIL-R-10509/2)

The only allowable variation is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Bulk), which does not affect electrical or mechanical performance.

Upgrade Alternative (Different Resistance Value):

• RN65D1501FRE6 represents a resistance value upgrade (1.5 kOhms versus 200 Ohms) within the same RN65 series
• All other electrical parameters remain identical (±1% tolerance, 0.5W power rating, ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -65°C to 175°C operating range)
• Physical dimensions and package type are identical
• This substitution applies only to circuit designs where the higher resistance value is functionally acceptable

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RN65D2000FB14 (Direct Equivalent): Select this part when the RN65D2000FR36 is unavailable and bulk packaging is acceptable for your procurement workflow. All electrical and mechanical specifications are identical. The difference in packaging format (Bulk versus Tape & Reel) does not affect component performance or circuit compatibility. Both parts maintain active production status and identical compliance certifications.

RN65D1501FRE6 (Upgrade Alternative): This part is suitable only for circuit designs where a 1.5 kOhm resistance value is functionally equivalent to the original 200 Ohm specification. The upgrade alternative maintains identical power rating, tolerance, temperature coefficient, and operating temperature range. Selection of this part requires circuit-level validation to confirm that the higher resistance value does not compromise circuit performance or design intent. Both parts share identical military-grade construction, flame retardant coating, and moisture resistance features.

All substitute parts maintain active production status, identical RoHS non-compliance status, and REACH Affected designation, ensuring consistency with regulatory and supply chain requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN65D2000FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN65D2000FR36?

A: Yes. RN65D2000FB14 is a direct electrical and mechanical equivalent. The only difference is packaging format: RN65D2000FR36 is supplied in Tape & Reel format, while RN65D2000FB14 is supplied in Bulk format. Both parts have identical resistance (200 Ohms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.5W), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), and physical dimensions (0.180" Dia x 0.562" L). Packaging format does not affect component performance.

Q: When should RN65D1501FRE6 be considered as a substitute?

A: RN65D1501FRE6 should be considered only when the circuit design can accommodate a 1.5 kOhm resistance value instead of 200 Ohms. This part is classified as an upgrade alternative, not a direct equivalent. All other electrical parameters (tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature) are identical. Circuit-level analysis is required to confirm functional compatibility before selecting this part.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous carrier tape suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Bulk packaging supplies loose components in containers. Both packaging formats contain identical components with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Packaging selection depends on manufacturing process requirements and assembly equipment compatibility, not component performance.

Q: Are all substitute parts in the same military series?

A: Yes. RN65D2000FB14 and RN65D1501FRE6 are both part of the RN65 military series (MIL-R-10509/2), the same series as the main part RN65D2000FR36. All parts share identical military-grade construction, flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety features.

Q: Do substitute parts have the same compliance status?

A: Yes. All substitute parts maintain identical RoHS non-compliance status and REACH Affected designation. Regulatory compliance status is consistent across all parts in this substitution group.

Q: What physical dimensions should be verified for PCB layout compatibility?

A: All parts in this substitution group share identical physical dimensions: 0.180" diameter by 0.562" length (4.57mm x 14.27mm). PCB layout and through-hole spacing designed for RN65D2000FR36 are compatible with all listed substitute parts without modification.
