Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The RS005R3000FE73 qualifies as a parametric equivalent to the RS005R3000FS73 based on the following substitution criteria:

Electrical parameters are identical: 300 mOhms resistance, ±1% tolerance, and 5W power rating ensure functional equivalence in circuit applications.

Mechanical compatibility is maintained: Both parts share identical axial package configuration, physical dimensions (0.312" Dia x 0.875" L), and two-terminal design, allowing direct board-level substitution without layout modifications.

Environmental specifications match: Operating temperature range (-65°C to 250°C) and moisture-resistant composition are consistent across both parts.

The primary difference between these parts is packaging format: RS005R3000FS73 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, while RS005R3000FE73 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. This distinction affects procurement and assembly processes but does not alter component performance or compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RS005R3000FS73 and RS005R3000FE73 are active production components from Vishay Dale with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these parts should be based on compliance requirements and packaging logistics.

The RS005R3000FS73 (Tape & Reel format) is suitable for high-volume automated assembly processes where reel-based component feeding is standard. This part carries RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected designations.

The RS005R3000FE73 (Cut Tape format) is appropriate for applications requiring ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. This variant is suitable for manual assembly, low-volume production, or regulatory environments where RoHS3 certification is mandatory. Cut Tape packaging also provides flexibility for mixed-component procurement.

Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8533.21.0080) classifications, indicating equivalent export and tariff treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RS005R3000FE73 be used as a direct replacement for RS005R3000FS73 in circuit applications?

A: Yes. Both parts have identical electrical specifications (300 mOhms, ±1%, 5W), mechanical dimensions, and operating characteristics. The only difference is packaging format (Cut Tape vs. Tape & Reel), which does not affect circuit performance or board-level compatibility.

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

A: Tape & Reel (TR) packaging supplies components on continuous reels suitable for automated pick-and-place assembly equipment. Cut Tape (CT) packaging provides components in tape strips of specific quantities, typically used for manual assembly or lower-volume production runs. Both formats contain identical components.

Q: Are there compliance differences between these two parts?

A: Yes. RS005R3000FS73 is RoHS non-compliant and REACH Affected. RS005R3000FE73 is ROHS3 Compliant and REACH Unaffected. If your application or market requires RoHS3 certification or REACH compliance, RS005R3000FE73 is the appropriate selection.

Q: Do these parts have the same operating temperature range?

A: Yes. Both parts operate across -65°C to 250°C, ensuring equivalent thermal performance in all specified environments.

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

A: RS005R3000FS73 in Tape & Reel format is optimized for high-volume automated assembly. However, if RoHS3 compliance is required, RS005R3000FE73 should be selected despite its Cut Tape format.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical axial package dimensions of 0.312" Dia x 0.875" L (7.92mm x 22.23mm), allowing direct substitution without PCB layout modifications.
