AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

Only one candidate has the same value.

Package risklow

Kept parts are 0603.

Firmware risklow

Passive resistor; no firmware.

Sourcing riskmedium

PDF checks are pending.

Can it be replaced directly?

FRC0603F3242TS is the closest catalog candidate, but it still needs FAE and PDF confirmation.

Best replacement path

Use the equal-value 32.4kΩ 0603 candidate first; use 33kΩ or 30.9kΩ only after circuit review.

Main risk

Resistance changes alter divider, bias, gain, or filter behavior.
