A likely direct replacement from the same manufacturer with identical package and electrical specifications.
Finding a substitute for the Viking Tech AR05DTCW1002 10kΩ resistor involves matching the 0805 package, 125mW power rating, and ±25ppm/°C TCR. Several excellent alternatives exist, including direct matches, high-precision upgrades, and cross-vendor options.
All suggested alternatives are in the same 0805 package.
Some parts have lower power ratings or worse TCR. These require careful design review.
Multiple cross-vendor options are available from major manufacturers like Yageo and EVER OHMS.
Direct replacement for AR05DTCW1002 should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
For a high-performance upgrade, choose PTFR0805Q10K0N9. For a likely direct drop-in, use ARG05DTC1002 from the same manufacturer.
The main risks when substituting are mismatched power ratings or temperature coefficients (TCR).
