Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of RNF14BTC2K67 with RNF14BTE2K67 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the RNF series. Both parts maintain identical resistance value (2.67 kOhms), tolerance specification (±0.1%), power rating (0.25W), composition (metal film), package type (axial), physical dimensions (0.093" Dia x 0.250" L), operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C), and compliance certifications (RoHS3, REACH unaffected).

The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format: RNF14BTC2K67 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) configuration, while RNF14BTE2K67 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) configuration. Both packaging formats are standard distribution methods for axial resistors and do not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in circuit applications.

A secondary parameter difference exists in temperature coefficient specification: RNF14BTC2K67 declares ±50ppm/°C while RNF14BTE2K67 declares ±25ppm/°C. The substitute part exhibits superior temperature stability characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RNF14BTC2K67 and RNF14BTE2K67 are Active status components with full RoHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected designation, confirming regulatory alignment for current manufacturing and distribution requirements.

Selection between these parts is determined by packaging requirements and inventory availability. RNF14BTC2K67 in Tape & Reel format is suitable for high-volume automated assembly operations. RNF14BTE2K67 in Cut Tape format accommodates lower-volume production runs or manual assembly workflows.

The substitute part RNF14BTE2K67 provides improved temperature coefficient performance (±25ppm/°C versus ±50ppm/°C), resulting in superior temperature stability across the -55°C to 155°C operating range. This characteristic may provide additional margin in precision circuit applications subject to thermal cycling.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are RNF14BTC2K67 and RNF14BTE2K67 electrically identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical resistance (2.67 kOhms), tolerance (±0.1%), power rating (0.25W), composition (metal film), and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C). The substitute part exhibits superior temperature coefficient performance.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous carrier tape wound on reels, optimized for high-speed automated pick-and-place assembly. Cut Tape (CT) packaging supplies components on cut segments of carrier tape, suitable for lower-volume or manual assembly processes. Both formats contain identical components with no electrical or mechanical performance differences.

Q: Can RNF14BTE2K67 be used as a direct replacement for RNF14BTC2K67?
