AEC-Q200 qualified 680Ω resistor in the same 0402 package. A strong but parametric alternative.
Finding a substitute for the 0402WGF6980TCE involves selecting a parametric alternative, as its 698Ω resistance is a non-standard value. Suitable replacements with the same 0402 package and 1/16W power rating are available using nearby standard resistance values like 680Ω or 750Ω.
Resistance differs by 2-8%. Most general-purpose circuits can tolerate this, but precision applications must be verified.
All candidates match the 0402 package, ensuring physical compatibility.
Some candidates use Thin Film technology instead of Thick Film, which can alter performance in noise-sensitive or high-pulse applications.
No direct, drop-in replacement with an identical 698Ω resistance was found. All suitable alternatives have slightly different resistance values and require engineering review.
Use a nearby standard value resistor like 680Ω or 715Ω after verifying circuit tolerance. The Yageo AC0402FR-07680RL (680Ω) is a strong candidate due to its AEC-Q200 rating.
The primary risk is the deviation in resistance from the original 698Ω value, which could affect circuit timing, biasing, or feedback loops.

The best alternative depends on your circuit's tolerance. For a common, high-quality option, consider AC0402FR-07680RL (680Ω, -2.6% deviation), which is AEC-Q200 qualified. If a closer value is needed, FRC0402F7150TS (715Ω, +2.4% deviation) is a good choice. Always verify in-circuit.
