FOJAN
Automotive-grade alternative with a slightly lower resistance value (10kΩ vs 10.5kΩ). Requires circuit analysis.
Finding a substitute for the Yageo AC0603FR-0710K5L, an automotive-grade 10.5kΩ resistor, requires careful review of both electrical parameters and qualifications. While some parts match resistance, they may lack the critical AEC-Q200 rating.
Using a non-AEC-Q200 part in an automotive design is a major compliance and reliability risk.
Some candidates have different resistance values or technology (Thin Film) that require circuit analysis.
All candidates share the common 0603 package, ensuring physical compatibility.
No direct, fully-equivalent replacement has been identified. All candidates have tradeoffs in resistance value or automotive qualification.
For automotive use, evaluate FRQ0603F1002TS, accepting a -4.7% resistance change. For non-automotive, FRC0603F1052TS is a closer parametric match.
The primary risk is substituting a non-automotive grade resistor into an application requiring AEC-Q200 reliability.

| Feature / factor | AC0603FR-0710K5L | FRQ0603F1002TS | FRC0603F1052TS | RT0603BRD0710K5L | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | 0603 | 0603 | 0603 | 0603 | 0603 — Same package size.; FRC0603F1052TS: Same package size.; RT0603BRD0710K5L: Same package size. |
| Application | AEC-Q200 | AEC-Q200 | Not specified | Not specified | AEC-Q200 / Not specified — Both parts are AEC-Q200 qualified.; FRC0603F1052TS: Candidate is not AEC-Q200 qualified.; RT0603BRD0710K5L: Candidate is not AEC-Q200 qualified. |
| Resistance | 10.5 kΩ | 10 kΩ | 10.5 kΩ | 10.5 kΩ | 10 kΩ / 10.5 kΩ — Resistance differs by -4.7%.; FRC0603F1052TS: Resistance value matches.; RT0603BRD0710K5L: Resistance value matches. |
| Tolerance | ±1% | ±1% | ±1% | ±0.1% | ±1% / ±0.1% — Tolerance matches.; FRC0603F1052TS: Tolerance matches.; RT0603BRD0710K5L: Tighter tolerance is an upgrade. |
| Technology | Thick Film | Thick Film | - | Thin Film | Thick Film / Thin Film — Technology matches.; RT0603BRD0710K5L: Different technology may affect pulse handling. |
| Tcr | ±100 ppm/°C | - | ±100 ppm/°C | - | ±100 ppm/°C — Temperature coefficient matches. |
The best alternative depends on application tolerance. FRQ0603F1002TS is also AEC-Q200 qualified but has a 10kΩ resistance. If 10.5kΩ is critical, FRC0603F1052TS matches parametrically but is not automotive grade.
