Yageo
An automotive-grade (AEC-Q200) upgrade with identical key parameters and higher reliability.
Find the best replacements for the FRC0603F5231TS, a 5.23kΩ 1% 0.1W 0603 chip resistor. This guide covers pin-compatible, upgraded, and parametric alternatives from leading manufacturers.
Low if key parameters (resistance, power, tolerance) are matched.
0603 is a standard package, ensuring physical compatibility.
Direct replacement for FRC0603F5231TS should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
The most straightforward replacement is Yageo's RC0603FR-075K23L, which is a form, fit, and function match. For automotive or high-reliability needs, the AC0603FR-075K23L is a direct upgrade.
The main risk is selecting a part with a different resistance value. Several similar parts exist with nearby resistance values (e.g., 5.11kΩ, 5.49kΩ) which are not direct replacements.
