AI replacement insight
Electrical riskmedium
Candidates have different resistance, tolerance, or technology.
Package risklow
All viable candidates share the same 0603 package.
Sourcing risklow
0603 resistors are widely available from multiple vendors.
Can it be replaced directly?
No direct, identical replacement was found in this batch. The closest options require reviewing parametric differences in resistance, tolerance, or technology.
Best replacement path
Find a 3.6kΩ, 1%, 1/10W, 0603 thick film resistor. If unavailable, consider RT0603BRD073K3L but verify the impact of its Thin Film technology and 3.3kΩ resistance.
Main risk
The main risk is substituting with a part of incorrect precision (tolerance/TCR) or technology (Thin Film vs. Thick Film), which can affect circuit performance.
