Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN65D2003FR36 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 200 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.5W (1/2W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Package type: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.180" Dia x 0.562" L (4.57mm x 14.27mm)
• Series compliance: Military, MIL-R-10509/2, RN65
• Features: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety

The identified substitute part RN65D2003FB14 maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The only difference is packaging format: the main part is supplied in tape and reel (TR) format, while the substitute is supplied in bulk packaging. Both parts share the same base product number (RN65) and manufacturing series designation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN65D2003FR36 and RN65D2003FB14 are active production components from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements and inventory availability:

• Select RN65D2003FR36 when tape and reel packaging is required for automated assembly processes.
• Select RN65D2003FB14 when bulk packaging is acceptable and higher inventory availability is advantageous.

Both parts maintain identical compliance status: RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. Military series designation (MIL-R-10509/2) and all safety features are preserved across both options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN65D2003FB14 be used as a direct replacement for RN65D2003FR36?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (bulk versus tape and reel). Functional performance in the circuit is identical.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between TR and Bulk formats?

A: Tape and reel (TR) packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Bulk packaging is suitable for manual assembly or applications where automated handling is not required. The component itself is unchanged.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts share identical RoHS status (non-compliant), REACH status (Affected), and military series designation (MIL-R-10509/2). Compliance profile is identical.

Q: What are the key parameters that must match for substitution?

A: Resistance (200 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.5W), composition (metal film), temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), axial package type, and physical dimensions (0.180" Dia x 0.562" L) must all remain constant for functional equivalence.

Q: Is inventory availability a factor in part selection?

A: Inventory availability may influence sourcing decisions. RN65D2003FB14 currently has higher inventory (1112 pcs) compared to RN65D2003FR36 (696 pcs). However, this does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.
