RN65D5002FRE6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN65D5002FRE6 is a 50 kOhm ±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 maintains active product status with 793 units in current inventory. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical performance can be achieved within the specified tolerance, power rating, and environmental operating parameters while maintaining the same package form factor and military qualification standards.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RN65D5002FRE6 is determined by the following criteria:

• Resistance Value: Must be 50 kOhms
• Power Rating: Must be 0.5W (1/2W) or higher
• Package Configuration: Must be axial through-hole
• Composition: Must be metal film
• Military Series: Must belong to RN65 series (MIL-R-10509/2)
• Operating Temperature Range: Must support -65°C to 175°C minimum
• Tolerance: May be equal to or tighter than ±1%

The RN65E5002BB14 qualifies as a direct substitute based on matching resistance value, power rating, package type, composition, military series designation, and operating temperature range. The substitute offers improved tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) and superior temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±100ppm/°C), representing an upgrade path within the same product family.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RN65D5002FRE6 and RN65E5002BB14 maintain active product status and are manufactured by Vishay Dale under identical military qualification standards (MIL-R-10509/2). Selection between these parts depends on application-specific tolerance and stability requirements:

• RN65D5002FRE6: Suitable for applications where ±1% tolerance and ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient meet performance specifications. Tape & Reel packaging supports high-volume production environments.

• RN65E5002BB14: Appropriate for applications requiring tighter tolerance control (±0.1%) and improved temperature stability (±25ppm/°C). Bulk packaging accommodates lower-volume or custom assembly requirements.

Both parts comply with identical RoHS non-compliance status, REACH affected designation, ECCN EAR99 classification, and HTSUS 8533.21.0090 tariff code. Electrical and mechanical interchangeability is confirmed across all critical parameters.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RN65E5002BB14 directly replace RN65D5002FRE6 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance value (50 kOhms), power rating (0.5W), package configuration (axial), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), and military series designation (RN65, MIL-R-10509/2). The substitute offers superior tolerance and temperature coefficient specifications.

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

A: The RN65E5002BB14 provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C versus ±100ppm/°C). Both maintain identical power rating, package dimensions, and military qualification.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. The RN65D5002FRE6 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, while the RN65E5002BB14 is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both use identical axial through-hole configuration with matching physical dimensions (0.180" Dia x 0.562" L).

Q: Do both parts meet the same military standards?

A: Yes. Both parts are qualified to MIL-R-10509/2 and belong to the RN65 military series. They share identical flame retardant coating, moisture resistance, and safety features.

Q: Which part should be selected for precision analog circuits?

A: The RN65E5002BB14 is the appropriate selection for applications requiring precision performance due to its ±0.1% tolerance and ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient, compared to the ±1% tolerance and ±100ppm/°C coefficient of the RN65D5002FRE6.
