RN70D2000FRE6 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RN70D2000FRE6 is a 200 Ohms ±1% 0.75W through-hole resistor manufactured by Vishay Dale. This metal film axial resistor features flame retardant coating and is designed for military applications per MIL-R-10509/3 specification. The component is currently active in production with 960 pieces available in stock. Alternative models may be required due to packaging format availability, inventory constraints, or specific application requirements for different resistance values or power ratings within the same military-grade product family.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RN70D2000FRE6 is limited by strict electrical and mechanical compatibility requirements. The primary substitute identified is the RN65D1501FRE6, which shares the following critical parameters with the main part:

• Manufacturer: Vishay Dale (same manufacturer ensures consistent quality and military specifications)
• Composition: Metal Film (identical construction type)
• Tolerance: ±1% (same precision class)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±100ppm/°C (identical thermal stability)
• Operating Temperature Range: -65°C to 175°C (same environmental rating)
• Package Type: Axial (same physical form factor)
• Size/Dimension: 0.180" Dia x 0.562" L (4.57mm x 14.27mm) (identical physical dimensions)
• Series: Military specification compliance (both MIL-R-10509 series)
• Features: Flame Retardant Coating, Military, Moisture Resistant, Safety (same protective characteristics)

The RN65D1501FRE6 differs in resistance value (1.5 kOhms versus 200 Ohms) and power rating (0.5W versus 0.75W), making it suitable only for applications where these electrical parameters are acceptable. The packaging format differs (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel), which may affect procurement and assembly processes.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Selection between the RN70D2000FRE6 and RN65D1501FRE6 must be based on circuit requirements for resistance value and power dissipation. Both components maintain active product status and identical military specification compliance (MIL-R-10509 series). Both components are RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected, requiring equivalent regulatory consideration in applications subject to these standards.

The RN70D2000FRE6 is specified for 200 Ohms at 0.75W power rating. The RN65D1501FRE6 is specified for 1.5 kOhms at 0.5W power rating. These electrical parameters are not interchangeable without circuit redesign. Physical dimensions and thermal characteristics are identical, permitting mechanical and thermal interchangeability only when electrical parameters are acceptable.

Packaging format differences (Tape & Reel versus Cut Tape) affect procurement and assembly operations but do not impact electrical or thermal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the RN65D1501FRE6 be used as a direct replacement for the RN70D2000FRE6?

A: No. The RN65D1501FRE6 has different electrical specifications (1.5 kOhms resistance and 0.5W power rating versus 200 Ohms and 0.75W). Direct substitution is only possible if the circuit design accommodates these electrical parameter changes.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical between these parts?

A: Yes. Both components have identical axial package dimensions of 0.180" Dia x 0.562" L (4.57mm x 14.27mm), permitting mechanical interchangeability in PCB layouts and through-hole assemblies.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous tape wound on reels, suitable for automated assembly equipment. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on tape segments, typically for manual assembly or lower-volume applications. Both formats contain identical components.

Q: Do both parts meet the same military specifications?

A: Both parts comply with MIL-R-10509 military resistor specifications. The RN70D2000FRE6 follows MIL-R-10509/3, while the RN65D1501FRE6 follows MIL-R-10509/2. Both maintain identical temperature coefficients, operating temperature ranges, and protective features (flame retardant coating, moisture resistance).

Q: Are there regulatory compliance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both components share identical RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected status, requiring equivalent regulatory consideration in applications subject to these standards.

Q: What determines whether a substitute part is acceptable?

A: Substitution is determined by matching resistance value, power rating, tolerance, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and package type to circuit requirements. Physical dimensions and thermal characteristics must also be compatible with the PCB layout and thermal environment.
