Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the RNF14FAD604R is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Resistance value: 604 Ohms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Package configuration: Axial through-hole
• Temperature coefficient: ±100ppm/°C
• Operating temperature range: -55°C to 155°C
• Physical dimensions: 0.093" Dia x 0.250" L (2.35mm x 6.35mm)
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The identified substitute part differs only in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Tape & Box), which does not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility in circuit applications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RNF14FAD604R and RNF14FTD604R are Active products manufactured by Stackpole Electronics Inc and maintain full ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts should be based on procurement and assembly requirements:

• RNF14FAD604R (Tape & Box packaging) is suitable for lower-volume applications or manual assembly processes where individual component handling is standard.
• RNF14FTD604R (Tape & Reel packaging) is optimized for high-volume automated assembly operations utilizing standard pick-and-place equipment.

Both parts deliver identical electrical performance and mechanical fit within circuit designs. Inventory availability (938 pcs for RNF14FAD604R, 925 pcs for RNF14FTD604R) should be evaluated against production schedules.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RNF14FTD604R be used as a direct replacement for RNF14FAD604R in circuit designs?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (Tape & Reel versus Tape & Box), which does not affect circuit performance or component placement.

Q: What is the significance of the packaging difference between TB and TR formats?

A: Tape & Box (TB) packaging is typically used for manual or low-volume assembly. Tape & Reel (TR) packaging is designed for automated pick-and-place assembly systems. The component itself is identical.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current regulatory standards?

A: Yes. Both RNF14FAD604R and RNF14FTD604R are ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and safety regulations.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for this resistor?

A: Substitution is valid when resistance value, tolerance, power rating, composition, temperature coefficient, operating temperature range, and physical dimensions remain unchanged. Packaging format does not affect substitution eligibility.

Q: Can these parts be used in high-temperature applications?

A: Yes. Both parts are rated for operating temperatures from -55°C to 155°C with a temperature coefficient of ±100ppm/°C, suitable for industrial and automotive applications within this range.
