Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RNC50K2002FPRSL is determined by the following core parameters:

• Resistance value: 20 kOhms (exact match required)
• Power rating: 0.1W / 1/10W (exact match required)
• Package type: Axial (exact match required)
• Physical dimensions: 0.070" Dia x 0.150" L (exact match required)
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C (exact match required)
• Series compliance: Military MIL-PRF-55182/07 RNC50 (exact match required)

Substitute parts may vary in tolerance specification, temperature coefficient, failure rate classification, and packaging format (Tape & Reel, Cut Tape, or Bulk) without affecting functional interchangeability in the specified application. All identified substitutes maintain identical electrical performance within their respective tolerance bands and meet the same military specifications and environmental requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status and identical core electrical specifications (20 kOhms, 0.1W, axial package, military series compliance). Selection between RNC50K2002FPRSL, RNC50H2002FSRE6, and RNC50J2002BSB14 is determined by packaging format requirements and failure rate specifications.

RNC50K2002FPRSL (Tape & Reel format) is suitable for automated assembly processes requiring continuous reel feeding. RNC50H2002FSRE6 (Cut Tape format) accommodates semi-automated or manual assembly workflows. RNC50J2002BSB14 (Bulk format) supports manual assembly operations and offers the tightest tolerance specification (±0.1%) with the lowest failure rate classification (S, 0.001%) and lowest temperature coefficient (±25ppm/°C).

All parts comply with MIL-PRF-55182/07 military specifications and maintain identical operating temperature ranges (-65°C to 175°C). RoHS compliance status is non-compliant across all variants. ECCN classification is EAR99 for all parts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RNC50H2002FSRE6 or RNC50J2002BSB14 be used as direct replacements for RNC50K2002FPRSL?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical resistance (20 kOhms), power rating (0.1W), package type (axial), physical dimensions (0.070" Dia x 0.150" L), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), and military series compliance (MIL-PRF-55182/07 RNC50). Functional interchangeability is maintained regardless of packaging format or tolerance variation.

Q: What is the difference between the packaging formats?

A: RNC50K2002FPRSL is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format for automated pick-and-place assembly. RNC50H2002FSRE6 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format for semi-automated or manual assembly with reduced tape length. RNC50J2002BSB14 is supplied in Bulk format for manual assembly operations without tape packaging.

Q: How do tolerance and temperature coefficient differences affect substitution?

A: RNC50K2002FPRSL specifies ±1% tolerance with ±100ppm/°C temperature coefficient. RNC50H2002FSRE6 maintains ±1% tolerance but improves to ±50ppm/°C. RNC50J2002BSB14 offers tighter ±0.1% tolerance with ±25ppm/°C temperature coefficient. These variations represent performance improvements and do not restrict substitution; however, applications requiring specific tolerance or temperature stability should select accordingly.

Q: What do the failure rate classifications mean?

A: RNC50K2002FPRSL carries failure rate classification P (0.1%). RNC50H2002FSRE6 and RNC50J2002BSB14 carry failure rate classification S (0.001%), indicating lower predicted failure rates. All classifications comply with military reliability standards.

Q: Are all parts RoHS compliant?

A: No. All three parts (RNC50K2002FPRSL, RNC50H2002FSRE6, and RNC50J2002BSB14) are RoHS non-compliant. Applications requiring RoHS compliance cannot use these components.

Q: Do all parts meet the same military specifications?

A: Yes. All three parts comply with Military MIL-PRF-55182/07 specifications and are part of the RNC50 series. All feature moisture-resistant, weldable metal film construction suitable for military and high-reliability applications.
