Yageo's RC0402FR-0714K7L is a general-purpose 14.7 kΩ, 1% tolerance thick film resistor in a standard 0402 package. While no exact drop-in replacements have been identified, several functional and parametric alternatives with similar form factors are available for engineering evaluation.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

Resistance values differ by 2-9%; some candidates have different technology (Thin Film).

Package risklow

All candidates match the 0402 package.

Sourcing risklow

Many similar resistors are available from multiple vendors.

Can it be replaced directly?

No direct, one-to-one replacement for RC0402FR-0714K7L has been verified. All candidates require review due to differences in resistance or technology.

Best replacement path

Consider parametric alternatives with slightly different resistance values (e.g., 15kΩ or 14.3kΩ) if the circuit tolerance allows. For higher precision, thin film upgrades are available but require technology review.

Main risk

The primary risk is the deviation in resistance value, which can affect circuit performance. For thin film alternatives, engineers must also validate compatibility with the application's pulse and noise requirements.

Questions & answers

The best alternative depends on your circuit's tolerance. For general use, a 15kΩ or 14.3kΩ 1% thick film resistor like Walsin's WR04X1502FTL is a close parametric match. For precision applications, a thin film resistor like Yageo's AT0402BRD0715KL offers better tolerance and TCR but requires technology validation.
