Package risklow

best candidates are 0603

Firmware risklow

passive resistor only

Sourcing riskmedium

cross-vendor specs need review

Can it be replaced directly?

No replacement is marked verified because PDFs are pending and FAE review is required.

Best replacement path

Start with FRC0603F3001TS or RS-03K3001FT, then verify datasheet package, voltage and derating.

Main risk

Using a ±5% or 1206 part can break tolerance or footprint assumptions.
