AI replacement insight

Electrical risklow

Exact-value candidates match key specs.

Package risklow

0603 and 2 terminals are listed.

Firmware risklow

Passive resistor; no firmware.

Sourcing riskmedium

Cross-vendor availability varies.

Can it be replaced directly?

RC0603FR-0740K2L and FRC0603F4022TS are the closest catalog matches, but final PDF review is still required.

Best replacement path

Prefer exact 40.2kΩ ±1% 0603 thick-film parts before relaxed 40kΩ or 39kΩ options.

Main risk

Equal 100mW power rating and unreviewed PDFs require derating and footprint confirmation.
