Is there a pin-compatible replacement for FRC0603F63R4TS?

Yes, several alternatives like 0603WAF590JT5E and RS-03K60R4FT share the same 0603 package and are pin-compatible. However, they are not electrically identical due to different resistance values, so they are not drop-in replacements.

What risks should I check before replacing FRC0603F63R4TS?

Before replacing, you must verify the impact of the resistance change on your circuit's performance. For some candidates, you must also check if the wider tolerance (e.g., ±5% vs ±1%) and higher TCR are acceptable for your application's stability.
