What risks should I check before replacing 1206W4F3602T5E?

When replacing, verify that the substitute's resistance, tolerance (±1%), power rating (0.25W), and temperature coefficient match your design requirements. Also, confirm the voltage rating and any pulse-withstanding capabilities if relevant to your circuit.

1206W4F3602T5E Alternatives, Datasheet & Cross Reference | UNI-ROYAL

Finding a substitute for the UNI-ROYAL 1206W4F3602T5E, a 36kΩ 1% 0.25W 1206 resistor, involves matching key electrical parameters and package size. Several pin-compatible and parametric alternatives are available from manufacturers like Yageo and FOJAN.

AI replacement insight

Electrical risklow

Low for pin-compatible matches, medium for parametric alternatives with different resistance or tolerance.

Package risklow

Low, as all reviewed candidates are in the same 1206 package.

Sourcing risklow

Low, as this is a common resistor value available from multiple vendors.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for 1206W4F3602T5E should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

Start with Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates for 1206W4F3602T5E, then review parametric alternatives for package and electrical fit.

Main risk

The main risk is using a part with incorrect resistance or a wider tolerance (e.g., 5% instead of 1%), which can affect circuit performance.

Recommended alternatives

Pin-compatible 36kΩ 1% 0.25W 1206 resistor from FOJAN, a strong alternative.
