Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the RNC55H2002FSRSL are classified based on the following substitution criteria:

Upgrade Substitute (Tighter Tolerance): RNC55H2002BSB14 maintains all core electrical parameters (20 kOhms resistance, 0.125W power rating, metal film composition, ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, -65°C to 175°C operating range) and mechanical specifications (axial package, 0.094" Dia × 0.250" L dimensions, 2 terminations). The primary difference is tolerance specification: ±0.1% versus ±1%. This part is supplied in Bulk packaging instead of Tape & Reel.

Parametric Equivalent (Packaging Variant): RNC55H2002FSRE6 is electrically and mechanically identical to the main part, with matching 20 kOhms ±1% resistance, 0.125W power rating, metal film composition, ±50ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -65°C to 175°C operating range. Physical dimensions and termination count are identical. The difference is packaging format: Cut Tape (CT) versus Tape & Reel (TR).

All substitute parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale, comply with MIL-PRF-55182/01, and maintain the same failure rate classification (S, 0.001%).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

RNC55H2002FSRSL (Original Specification): Select this part when Tape & Reel packaging is required for automated assembly processes and ±1% tolerance meets circuit requirements. Active production status ensures consistent availability.

RNC55H2002BSB14 (Upgrade Substitute): Select this part when circuit design requires tighter tolerance specification (±0.1% versus ±1%) and Bulk packaging is acceptable for manual assembly or rework operations. The upgrade tolerance provides improved precision for applications with stricter resistance value requirements. Active production status is maintained.

RNC55H2002FSRE6 (Packaging Equivalent): Select this part when Cut Tape packaging is preferred over Tape & Reel format, or when Tape & Reel availability is constrained. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical to the original part. Active production status ensures supply continuity.

All three parts maintain military-grade compliance with MIL-PRF-55182/01 and identical failure rate classification, supporting applications requiring high reliability standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RNC55H2002BSB14 be used as a direct replacement for RNC55H2002FSRSL?

A: RNC55H2002BSB14 is electrically and mechanically compatible with identical resistance value (20 kOhms), power rating (0.125W), temperature coefficient (±50ppm/°C), and operating range (-65°C to 175°C). The tolerance is tighter (±0.1% versus ±1%), which is a performance upgrade. The primary difference is packaging format (Bulk versus Tape & Reel). Compatibility depends on assembly process requirements and tolerance specifications of the circuit design.

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, optimized for high-speed automated assembly equipment. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on tape segments cut to specific lengths, suitable for lower-volume assembly or manual placement. Both formats contain the same component; the difference is handling and assembly method compatibility.

Q: Are all three parts RoHS compliant?

A: All three parts (RNC55H2002FSRSL, RNC55H2002BSB14, and RNC55H2002FSRE6) are RoHS non-compliant, as specified in their product data. This is typical for military-grade components manufactured to MIL-PRF-55182/01 specification.

Q: Can I use RNC55H2002FSRE6 in place of RNC55H2002FSRSL?

A: Yes. RNC55H2002FSRE6 is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications (20 kOhms ±1%, 0.125W, metal film, ±50ppm/°C, -65°C to 175°C) and mechanical dimensions (0.094" Dia × 0.250" L, axial package, 2 terminations). The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). Compatibility is determined by assembly equipment capability to handle Cut Tape format.

Q: Which substitute part should I select for improved circuit accuracy?

A: RNC55H2002BSB14 provides tighter tolerance (±0.1% versus ±1%), resulting in improved resistance value accuracy. Select this part when circuit design specifications require tolerance better than ±1%. All other electrical and mechanical parameters remain equivalent to the original part.

Q: Are these parts available in other resistance values?

A: The RNC55 series includes multiple resistance values within the same military-grade specification. The information provided covers only the 20 kOhms value. Consult component datasheets for availability of alternative resistance values.
