0402WGF3602TCE is a 36kΩ ±1% 0402 thick-film resistor. Close substitutes need value, footprint, and rating review.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

36.5kΩ or 39kΩ changes circuit values.

Package riskhigh

0603/0805 options need PCB changes.

Firmware risklow

Passive resistor; no firmware interface.

Sourcing riskmedium

PDF checks are pending.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for 0402WGF3602TCE should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

Use 0402WGF3652TCE only if 36.5kΩ is acceptable; otherwise source the exact 36kΩ part.

Main risk

Resistance shift is the main risk; package mismatch affects Yageo options.
