Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RNC50J2002FSRE6 is determined by the following core parameters:

• Resistance value: 20 kOhms (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.1W minimum
• Composition: Metal film
• Package type: Axial through-hole
• Temperature coefficient: ±25ppm/°C or better
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C minimum
• Series compliance: Military RNC50, MIL-PRF-55182/07
• Termination count: 2 leads

The identified substitute part RNC50J2002BSB14 maintains all core electrical and mechanical parameters while differing in tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) and packaging format (Bulk versus Tape & Reel). These differences do not affect functional substitutability in applications where the RNC50J2002FSRE6 is specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The RNC50J2002BSB14 is a direct functional equivalent to the RNC50J2002FSRE6. Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale, comply with MIL-PRF-55182/07 military specifications, and maintain identical electrical performance across the full operating temperature range. The substitute part offers improved tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%), which provides enhanced precision without compromising compatibility. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements (Tape & Reel versus Bulk format) and tolerance specifications for the application. Both parts are active products with confirmed inventory availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RNC50J2002BSB14 replace RNC50J2002FSRE6 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance, power rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, physical dimensions, and military series compliance. The substitute part features tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%), which is a performance enhancement rather than a limitation.

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

A: The main differences are packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Bulk) and tolerance specification. The RNC50J2002BSB14 provides ±0.1% tolerance compared to ±1% for the RNC50J2002FSRE6. Electrical performance and mechanical compatibility remain identical.

Q: Are both parts MIL-PRF-55182/07 compliant?

A: Yes. Both RNC50J2002FSRE6 and RNC50J2002BSB14 are part of the Military RNC50 series and comply with MIL-PRF-55182/07 specifications.

Q: Does packaging format affect electrical performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel and Bulk packaging formats do not affect component electrical characteristics or performance. The difference is in handling, storage, and assembly process compatibility.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on application requirements. If tighter tolerance is beneficial, RNC50J2002BSB14 (±0.1%) is preferred. If standard tolerance is sufficient, either part is acceptable. Packaging format should align with assembly process requirements.
