Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution within the RNC60K2002FSB14 product family is determined by electrical equivalence and mechanical compatibility. All identified substitutes maintain identical resistance value (20 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), composition (metal film), package type (axial), operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C), and military series designation (MIL-PRF-55182/03).

The primary differentiators between the main part and substitutes are:

  • Temperature Coefficient: RNC60K2002FSB14 operates at ±100ppm/°C, while substitute parts RNC60H2002FSB14 and RNC60H2002FSRE6 operate at ±50ppm/°C
  • Packaging Format: RNC60K2002FSB14 is supplied in Bulk packaging; RNC60H2002FSRE6 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) packaging
  • Inventory Availability: Substitute parts offer higher stock levels (2000 and 1310 units respectively versus 763 units for the main part)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status and identical military specification compliance (MIL-PRF-55182/03). Selection between RNC60K2002FSB14 and its substitutes depends on application-specific requirements:

RNC60H2002FSB14 provides improved temperature stability with ±50ppm/°C coefficient versus the ±100ppm/°C of the main part, while maintaining bulk packaging format and higher inventory availability (2000 units).

RNC60H2002FSRE6 offers the same temperature coefficient improvement (±50ppm/°C) with cut tape packaging format, suitable for automated assembly processes, with 1310 units in stock.

All parts share identical electrical performance in resistance, tolerance, power rating, and operating temperature range. RoHS non-compliance status is consistent across all variants. REACH affected status applies to substitute parts RNC60H2002FSB14 and RNC60H2002FSRE6.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RNC60H2002FSB14 and RNC60H2002FSRE6 be used interchangeably with RNC60K2002FSB14?

A: Yes, from an electrical standpoint. All three parts share identical resistance (20 kOhms), tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), composition (metal film), and operating temperature range (-65°C to 175°C). The substitute parts offer improved temperature coefficient stability (±50ppm/°C versus ±100ppm/°C). Mechanical compatibility is confirmed through identical axial package dimensions (0.097" Dia x 0.280" L).

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

A: RNC60K2002FSB14 and RNC60H2002FSB14 are supplied in Bulk packaging, suitable for manual assembly and stock management. RNC60H2002FSRE6 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format, designed for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Physical component specifications remain identical.

Q: Does the temperature coefficient difference affect circuit performance?

A: Temperature coefficient determines resistance value drift across the operating temperature range. RNC60K2002FSB14 exhibits ±100ppm/°C drift, while RNC60H2002FSB14 and RNC60H2002FSRE6 exhibit ±50ppm/°C drift. Applications requiring tighter resistance stability across temperature extremes (-65°C to 175°C) benefit from the lower coefficient variants.

Q: Are all parts compliant with military specifications?

A: All three parts conform to MIL-PRF-55182/03 military specification and maintain identical failure rate classification (S, 0.001%). All are RoHS non-compliant and classified under ECCN EAR99 with HTSUS code 8533.21.0090.

Q: Which substitute should be selected for new designs?

A: Selection depends on assembly process and temperature stability requirements. For manual assembly with bulk component handling, RNC60H2002FSB14 provides improved temperature coefficient. For automated assembly lines, RNC60H2002FSRE6 in cut tape format is appropriate. Both offer superior temperature stability compared to the main part.
