Is there a pin-compatible replacement for CRCW0402887RFKED?

While several alternatives share the same 0402 package, none are a direct pin-compatible electrical match. The closest options have different resistance values, and some also have lower power ratings or lack automotive qualification. Engineering review is essential.

What risks should I check before replacing CRCW0402887RFKED?

Before replacing, you must check three main risks: 1) Resistance deviation, as no alternative is exactly 887Ω. 2) Power rating, as some alternatives have a slightly lower rating. 3) Qualification, as the target is AEC-Q200 qualified and many alternatives are not.

AI replacement insight

Electrical risklow

Resistance values are within 3% for the best options, but power and qualification differ on others.

Package risklow

All viable candidates use the same 0402 package, ensuring physical compatibility.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct drop-in replacement was found. All viable alternatives have parametric differences that require engineering review.

Best replacement path

The closest alternative is CRCW0402910RFKED from the same Vishay family, which matches all key specs except for a 2.6% higher resistance value.

Main risk

The primary risk is the deviation in resistance value. For non-automotive applications, the lack of AEC-Q200 qualification in other alternatives is also a major consideration.

Recommended alternatives

A close alternative from the same manufacturer and series with a slightly higher resistance value.
