A pin-compatible upgrade with identical resistance, tighter tolerance (±0.5%), and better TCR (±25 ppm/°C).
FRC0402F6041TS is a general-purpose 6.04 kΩ, 1% tolerance, 1/16W thick film resistor in a standard 0402 package. Alternatives are available, including precision upgrades and parametrically relaxed options.
All reviewed candidates use the same 0402 package.
Many alternatives have different resistance values that require circuit validation.
AT0402DRD076K04L is a direct, high-performance replacement. Other candidates have different resistance values and are not direct replacements.
Upgrade to the thin film AT0402DRD076K04L for higher precision, or use a parametrically relaxed thick film part if resistance tolerance is not critical.
The primary risk is using a substitute with a resistance value outside the application's required tolerance.

| Feature / factor | FRC0402F6041TS | AT0402DRD076K04L | FRC0402F6201TS | Alt 3 | Compatibility / risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Package | 0402 | 0402 | 0402 | 0402 — Same package and pin count.; FRC0402F6201TS: Same package and pin count. | |
| Resistance | 6.04 kΩ | 6.04 kΩ | 6.2 kΩ | 6.04 kΩ / 6.2 kΩ — Resistance value is identical.; FRC0402F6201TS: Resistance deviates by +2.65%. | |
| Tolerance | ±1% | ±0.5% | ±1% | ±0.5% / ±1% — Tighter tolerance provides higher precision.; FRC0402F6201TS: Tolerance is identical. | |
| Tcr | ±100 ppm/°C | ±25 ppm/°C | ±100 ppm/°C | ±25 ppm/°C / ±100 ppm/°C — Lower TCR provides better stability over temperature.; FRC0402F6201TS: TCR is identical. | |
| Technology | Thick Film | Thin Film | - | Thin Film — Upgrade from thick film; may have different pulse handling. |
The best alternative is AT0402DRD076K04L from Yageo. It offers the same resistance value but with superior tolerance (±0.5%) and temperature coefficient (±25 ppm/°C) as it is a thin film resistor.
