Part number ordering options are developed using the following criteria:
Style
Detail Specification
Terminal Characteristics
RWR78
MIL-PRF-39007/7
W = Weldable, Inductively Wound
RWR80
MIL-PRF-39007/8
S = Solderable, Inductively Wound
RWR81
MIL-PRF-39007/9
N = Solderable, Noninductively Wound
RWR84
MIL-PRF-39007/10
Z = Weldable, Noniductively Wound
RWR89
MIL-PRF-39007/11
 
Resistance Tolerance
Failure Rate Level
B = ± 0.1 %
P = 0.1%/1000 hrs (Level 2)
D = ± 0.5 %
R = 0.01%/1000 hrs (Level 2)
F = ± 1%
S = 0.001%/1000 hrs (Level 1)
T = Space Level (See Application Notes)
Resistance Values:
Resistance values in ohms are contained in the following listing. When ordering, the first three digits represent significant figures and the last digit specifies the number of zeroes to follow. For example 1001 indicates 1,000 ohms and 1002 indicates 10,000 ohms. For values less than or equal to 100 ohms the letter "R" is used to indicate a decimal point. For example 10R0 indicates 10.0 ohms.
