• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W
• Temperature coefficient: ±50ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 175°C

Mechanical Parameters (Identical):

• Composition: Metal Film
• Package type: Axial
• Physical dimensions: 0.097" Dia x 0.280" L
• Number of terminations: 2

Certification & Compliance (Identical):

• Military series: MIL-PRF-55182/03, RNC60
• Failure rate: S (0.001%)
• Features: Military, Moisture Resistant, Weldable

Packaging Difference: The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format: RNC60H2002FSR36 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while RNC60H2002FSRE6 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. Both formats contain identical components with no electrical or mechanical differences.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RNC60H2002FSR36 and RNC60H2002FSRE6 are active production parts meeting identical military specifications and certifications. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and inventory availability:

RNC60H2002FSR36 (Tape & Reel): Select when automated assembly processes require continuous tape feeding or when Tape & Reel packaging is specified in procurement documentation.

RNC60H2002FSRE6 (Cut Tape): Select when manual assembly, kit assembly, or lower-volume production runs require individual component access. This variant currently has higher inventory availability at 1310 pieces.

Both parts are RoHS non-compliant and classified under ECCN EAR99 with identical HTSUS code 8533.21.0090. No electrical performance difference exists between these variants.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RNC60H2002FSRE6 be used as a direct replacement for RNC60H2002FSR36?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape versus Tape & Reel). Direct substitution is valid for any application where the component itself is used, provided the packaging format is compatible with your assembly process.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on a continuous reel suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly machines. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies the same components cut from tape, typically used for manual assembly, kit builds, or lower-volume applications. The resistor components are identical.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts carry identical military certifications (MIL-PRF-55182/03), failure rate ratings (S grade), and feature sets (Military, Moisture Resistant, Weldable). Both are RoHS non-compliant with identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: Which part should I select for high-volume automated assembly?

A: RNC60H2002FSR36 in Tape & Reel format is optimized for automated assembly processes. However, RNC60H2002FSRE6 can also be used if your assembly equipment supports cut tape feeding.

Q: Is there a performance difference in temperature stability or tolerance between these parts?

A: No. Both parts have identical temperature coefficients (±50ppm/°C), tolerance (±1%), and operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C). Performance is equivalent across all electrical parameters.
