AR02BTD2402 is a 24kΩ precision thin-film resistor in a 0402 package with 0.1% tolerance. A strong pin-compatible replacement exists, alongside functional alternatives with different resistance values.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskhigh

High risk if using parts with wider tolerance, different TCR, or technology.

Package risklow

All reviewed candidates use the same 0402 package.

Sourcing risklow

Multiple alternatives from major manufacturers like Yageo are available.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for AR02BTD2402 should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

The best replacement path is Yageo's RT0402BRD0724KL, which matches all key specifications and offers a superior TCR.

Main risk

The main risk when substituting is using a part with wider tolerance (e.g., 1% or 5%) or different technology (Thick Film), which can degrade circuit performance.
