AI replacement insight

Electrical riskhigh

Using a part with incorrect tolerance or TCR can cause circuit failure.

Package risklow

Many 0402 resistors are available, making physical replacement straightforward.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for AR02BTC4701 should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

Yageo's RT0402BRD074K7L offers the most direct replacement path with matching key parameters.

Main risk

The primary risk is substituting with a part that has a looser tolerance or higher TCR, which would degrade the performance of precision circuits.
