Finding a substitute for the FRC0402J682 TS, a general-purpose 6.8kΩ 5% 0402 chip resistor, involves matching key electrical and physical parameters. Several options offer upgraded performance with tighter tolerance and stability.

AI replacement insight

Package risklow

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

Electrical riskmedium

Some candidates have slightly different resistance values. The change from thick to thin film technology should also be considered.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for FRC0402J682 TS should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

The best replacement path is an upgrade to a higher-precision resistor like Yageo's RT0402BRD076K8L, which offers the same resistance in the same package but with significantly better tolerance and temperature stability.

Main risk

The main risk when substituting is selecting a part with a different nominal resistance value, which can alter circuit behavior. For example, some alternatives are 6.98kΩ or 6.65kΩ.
