AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

Check value, power and derating.

Package risklow

Kept parts are 0402, 2-terminal.

Firmware risklow

Passive resistor; no firmware.

Sourcing riskmedium

Some candidates lack web evidence.

Can it be replaced directly?

No fully verified pin-compatible replacement is confirmed from the provided fields.

Best replacement path

Use RC0402FR-0716KL first, then consider 16.2 kΩ only if the circuit allows value shift.

Main risk

Resistance shifts and missing voltage/temperature ratings.
