Yageo's AC0402FR-072K4L is a 2.4kΩ, 1% tolerance, 1/16W, AEC-Q200 qualified 0402 chip resistor. Finding a direct replacement requires matching all parameters, especially the automotive-grade qualification.

AI replacement insight

Application riskhigh

Substituting a non-AEC-Q200 part in an automotive design is a major compliance and reliability risk.

Electrical riskmedium

Risk is low for the 2.4kΩ candidate, but medium for others due to resistance deviation requiring circuit analysis.

Package risklow

All candidates share the same 0402 package, ensuring physical compatibility.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, fully-qualified replacement has been identified in this list. All candidates lack the target's critical AEC-Q200 qualification.

Best replacement path

Search for another AEC-Q200 qualified resistor with 2.4kΩ, ±1% tolerance, and 0402 package. If unavailable, FRC0402F2401TS is a non-qualified option with matching electricals.

Main risk

Loss of automotive-grade reliability by substituting with a commercial-grade component, which may not meet the required stress, temperature, and lifetime standards.
