RNC55J2002FSBSL Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The RNC55J2002FSBSL is a 20 kOhms ±1% metal film through-hole resistor rated at 0.125W (1/8W) in axial package configuration. Manufactured by Vishay Dale under the military-grade RNC55 series (MIL-PRF-55182/01), this component is designed for applications requiring moisture resistance and weldability in military and high-reliability environments. The part maintains active product status with 780 units currently in stock. Equivalent substitute parts may be required due to inventory availability, procurement lead times, or specific packaging requirements while maintaining identical electrical and mechanical performance.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RNC55J2002FSBSL is determined by strict equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. The substitute part RNC55J2002FSB14 qualifies as a direct equivalent based on the following criteria:

• Identical resistance value: 20 kOhms
• Identical tolerance: ±1%
• Identical power rating: 0.125W (1/8W)
• Identical composition: Metal Film
• Identical temperature coefficient: ±25ppm/°C
• Identical operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C
• Identical package configuration: Axial
• Identical physical dimensions: 0.094" Dia × 0.250" L (2.39mm × 6.35mm)
• Identical series classification: Military, MIL-PRF-55182/01, RNC55
• Identical feature set: Military, Moisture Resistant, Weldable
• Identical failure rate: S (0.001%)

Both parts are manufactured by Vishay Dale and maintain active product status. The substitute part carries higher inventory availability (1,116 units in stock versus 780 units for the primary part).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the RNC55J2002FSBSL and RNC55J2002FSB14 are active products manufactured by Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on procurement requirements and inventory availability. The RNC55J2002FSB14 offers increased stock availability with 1,116 units in inventory compared to 780 units for the primary part number. Both parts comply with MIL-PRF-55182/01 military specifications and maintain equivalent failure rate classifications. Neither part is RoHS compliant, and both are classified under ECCN EAR99 with identical HTSUS coding (8533.21.0090). The RNC55J2002FSB14 carries REACH Affected status, which should be evaluated against project compliance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RNC55J2002FSB14 be used as a direct replacement for RNC55J2002FSBSL?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametrically equivalent across all electrical and mechanical specifications, including resistance value, tolerance, power rating, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, package configuration, and physical dimensions. They are interchangeable in circuit applications.

Q: Are there any differences in military compliance between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are manufactured to MIL-PRF-55182/01 specifications and carry identical military classification within the RNC55 series. Both maintain the same failure rate rating of S (0.001%).

Q: What is the difference between the part numbers?

A: The part numbers differ only in their suffix designations (FSBSL versus FSB14). Both designations refer to the same base product (RNC55J2002) with identical electrical and mechanical characteristics. The suffix variation reflects different packaging or distribution batches from Vishay Dale.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical axial package dimensions of 0.094" diameter × 0.250" length (2.39mm × 6.35mm), ensuring compatibility with existing PCB layouts and through-hole mounting patterns.

Q: Which part should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection should be based on current inventory availability and procurement lead times. The RNC55J2002FSB14 currently has higher stock availability (1,116 units versus 780 units). Both parts are active products suitable for new design implementations.

Q: Is there a compliance difference regarding RoHS status?

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS non-compliant status. The RNC55J2002FSB14 includes REACH Affected designation, which should be evaluated against specific project compliance requirements.
