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.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskhigh

High risk if using a general-purpose part; low risk for a precision equivalent like RT0402BRD076K8L.

Package risklow

All reviewed candidates use the standard 0402 package.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for ERA2AEB682X should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

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.

Main risk

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).
