Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the RSF2JB5K60 is determined by electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence within the RSF series. The substitute part RSF2JT5K60 maintains identical electrical specifications: 5.6 kOhms resistance, ±5% tolerance, 2W power rating, metal oxide film composition, ±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient, and -55°C ~ 235°C operating temperature range. Both parts share the same axial package configuration with identical physical dimensions of 0.217" Dia x 0.591" L (5.50mm x 15.00mm). The primary distinction between these parts is packaging format: RSF2JB5K60 is supplied in bulk packaging, while RSF2JT5K60 is supplied in cut tape (CT) packaging. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical regulatory status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both RSF2JB5K60 and RSF2JT5K60 are functionally equivalent for circuit applications requiring 5.6 kOhms ±5% 2W axial resistors. Selection between these parts should be based on packaging requirements and supply chain logistics. The RSF2JB5K60 in bulk packaging is suitable for high-volume manual assembly or bin storage applications. The RSF2JT5K60 in cut tape packaging is optimized for automated pick-and-place assembly systems and tape-fed component handling. Both parts maintain active production status and full ROHS3 compliance, ensuring long-term availability and regulatory conformance for new designs and production runs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can RSF2JT5K60 be used as a direct replacement for RSF2JB5K60 in circuit design?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical. The only difference is packaging format (bulk versus cut tape). Circuit performance, electrical characteristics, and thermal behavior are equivalent.

Q: What is the primary reason to substitute RSF2JB5K60 with RSF2JT5K60?

A: Packaging format compatibility. RSF2JT5K60 in cut tape packaging is required for automated assembly equipment, while RSF2JB5K60 in bulk packaging is used for manual assembly or component storage.

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

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance status, REACH unaffected status, and ECCN/HTSUS classifications.

Q: Do these parts have different temperature operating ranges?

A: No. Both parts operate across the identical temperature range of -55°C ~ 235°C with the same ±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient.

Q: Can these parts be mixed in the same production batch?

A: Yes, provided your assembly process can accommodate both bulk and cut tape packaging formats. The electrical and mechanical specifications are identical, so circuit performance will be equivalent.
