Yageo
Automotive-grade (AEC-Q200) upgrade from Yageo with tighter 1% tolerance.
Find verified alternatives for the FRC0402J304 TS, a 300kΩ 5% 1/16W 0402 chip resistor. This guide provides pin-compatible, upgrade, and parametric options to manage sourcing challenges and improve design robustness.
Risk is low if key parameters (Resistance, Tolerance, Power, TCR) are matched or improved.
All suggested candidates use the same 0402 package, ensuring form and fit compatibility.
Multiple cross-vendor options (Yageo, UNI-ROYAL) are available, reducing single-source dependency.
Direct replacement for FRC0402J304 TS should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
For an upgrade, Yageo AC0402FR-07300KL offers tighter 1% tolerance and AEC-Q200 qualification. For a direct cross, Yageo RC0402JR-07300KL is a strong match but requires TCR verification.
The primary risk is ensuring the Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR) of an alternative matches the target's ±100 ppm/°C, as this data can be missing and affect circuit stability over temperature.
