FOJAN
A general-purpose resistor with matching resistance, tolerance, and power in the same 0603 package, but lacks AEC-Q200 qualification.
AC0603FR-07150RL is a 150Ω 1% 0.1W 0603 thick film resistor qualified to AEC-Q200 for automotive use. Alternatives exist but require careful review of qualification and parametric differences.
Lack of AEC-Q200 qualification in all candidates is a critical mismatch for automotive designs.
Some candidates have different resistance or technology, requiring circuit validation.
All candidates match the 0603 package, ensuring physical compatibility.
No direct, drop-in replacement has been identified, as all reviewed candidates lack the target's critical AEC-Q200 qualification.
For non-automotive applications, FRC0603F1500TS offers the same key parameters. For automotive use, a different AEC-Q200 qualified part is strongly recommended.
Substituting a non-AEC-Q200 qualified part in an automotive or other high-reliability application where the target was specified.
