Parametric alternative in the same 0603 package with a slightly higher resistance of 287Ω.
Find and compare alternatives for the FRC0603F2800TS, a 280Ω ±1% 0.1W 0603 thick film resistor. This guide analyzes parametric alternatives, highlighting differences in resistance, tolerance, and technology to help you make an informed choice.
Resistance values differ by up to 7.1%. Tolerance or technology changes in some candidates require circuit analysis.
All suggested candidates use the same 0603 package, ensuring form-fit compatibility.
No exact drop-in replacement with 280Ω resistance was found. All candidates require review due to parametric differences, primarily in resistance value.
For applications tolerant of a small resistance change, RTT032870FTP (287Ω) and RS-03K2700FT (270Ω) are the closest parametric matches. For higher precision, RT0603BRD07270RL is an upgrade but requires review of the technology change from thick to thin film.
The primary risk is the resistance mismatch. All candidates have values between 270Ω and 300Ω, which may affect circuit performance. Some candidates also have wider tolerance (±5%) or different technology (thin film).
