Yageo
A pin-compatible thin film resistor with matching resistance, tolerance, and TCR, but a slightly lower power rating.
The Panasonic ERA2AEB682X is a 0402 precision thin-film resistor with 6.8kΩ resistance and ±0.1% tolerance. Finding a direct replacement requires matching tolerance, TCR, and technology.
High risk if using a general-purpose part; low risk for a precision equivalent like RT0402BRD076K8L.
All reviewed candidates use the standard 0402 package.
Direct replacement for ERA2AEB682X should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
The Yageo RT0402BRD076K8L is a very strong candidate, matching all key precision parameters. Other general-purpose resistors are available but represent a significant performance downgrade.
The main risk is substituting a general-purpose thick-film resistor, which will degrade circuit precision due to wider tolerance and higher temperature drift (TCR).
