Yageo
An AEC-Q200 qualified upgrade with tighter tolerance (±1%) and better TCR (±100 ppm/°C).
RC0805JR-0715KL is a general-purpose 15kΩ, 5% tolerance, 1/8W thick film resistor in a standard 0805 package. Several alternatives are available, including direct-fit upgrades and high-precision options.
Low for same-technology upgrades; medium for thin-film substitutes which require review.
All suggested candidates are in the same 0805 package.
Yes, several direct replacements exist. Yageo AC0805FR-0715KL is an excellent upgrade with tighter tolerance and automotive qualification.
Upgrade to an AEC-Q200 qualified part like Yageo AC0805FR-0715KL for improved tolerance, TCR, and reliability.
The main risk is substituting with a part of a different technology (e.g., thin film) without verifying application-specific needs like pulse withstanding.
