Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RNF14FAD7K32 and RNF14FTD7K32 are direct electrical and mechanical equivalents within the Stackpole RNF series. Substitution is valid based on the following matching parameters:

• Resistance value: 7.32 kOhms
• Tolerance: ±1%
• Power rating: 0.25W (1/4W)
• Composition: Metal Film
• Package configuration: Axial
• 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 certifications: ROHS3, REACH Unaffected, EAR99

The only difference between these parts is the packaging format: RNF14FAD7K32 is supplied in Tape & Box (TB) format, while RNF14FTD7K32 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. Both formats contain identical components with identical electrical and thermal characteristics.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RNF14FAD7K32 and RNF14FTD7K32 are active production components with full ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Selection between these parts is determined solely by packaging requirements:

• RNF14FAD7K32 (Tape & Box) is suitable for applications requiring bulk packaging with protective boxing for storage and distribution.
• RNF14FTD7K32 (Cut Tape) is suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly operations and applications where individual component access from tape is required.

Both parts meet identical electrical specifications, thermal performance, and regulatory requirements. The choice between them does not affect circuit performance or reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RNF14FTD7K32 be used as a direct replacement for RNF14FAD7K32 in circuit design?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format. Circuit performance, reliability, and thermal characteristics are identical.

Q: What is the difference between Tape & Box (TB) and Cut Tape (CT) packaging?

A: Tape & Box packaging supplies components on continuous tape with protective boxing for storage. Cut Tape packaging supplies components on tape segments cut to specific lengths. Both formats contain the same components; the difference is in handling and assembly workflow compatibility.

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

A: No. Both parts carry identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and EAR99 ECCN classification.

Q: Which packaging format should I select for automated assembly?

A: Cut Tape (CT) format is standard for automated pick-and-place assembly operations. Tape & Box (TB) format is typically used for manual assembly or bulk storage applications.

Q: Do these parts have identical temperature performance?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C) and operating temperature range (-55°C to 155°C).
