A likely pin-compatible 0603 resistor, but with a slightly different nominal resistance of 68.1kΩ.
RC0603FR-0768KL is a common 68kΩ 1% 0.1W 0603 thick film resistor from Yageo. Several potential pin-compatible and functional alternatives are available from other manufacturers, though careful review of their datasheets is recommended to ensure full compatibility.
Most candidates match key electrical specs. Minor resistance or TCR differences should be checked.
Most candidates are in the same 0603 package. One functional alternate is in a 1206 package.
Relying on a substitute without verifying missing datasheet parameters (TCR, technology) can lead to circuit failure.
Direct replacement for RC0603FR-0768KL should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Verify candidates like 0603WAF6802T5E or RS-03K6802FT by checking their datasheets for missing parameters (TCR, technology).
The primary risk is substituting with a part of a different technology (e.g., Thin Film) without considering application-specific needs like pulse handling or noise performance.
