RC0402FR-076K81L is a general-purpose 6.81 kΩ 1% 1/16W thick film resistor in a 0402 package. This page provides verified alternatives, including pin-compatible upgrades and parametric options for your design.

AI replacement insight

Electrical risklow

For parametric alternatives, resistance is outside 1% tolerance and must be validated by the design engineer.

Package risklow

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

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for RC0402FR-076K81L should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

AC0402FR-076K8L is the best path, offering a near-perfect electrical match and an upgrade to automotive grade (AEC-Q200).

Main risk

The primary risk when substituting is using a part with a resistance value outside the circuit's required tolerance.
