A pin-compatible 24kΩ 1% 0.1W resistor in an identical 0603 package.
RS-03K2402FT is a general-purpose 24kΩ, 1% tolerance, 0.1W thick film resistor in a standard 0603 surface-mount package. Several pin-compatible replacements and high-precision upgrades are readily available from multiple manufacturers.
For pin-compatible parts, risk is minimal. For parametric alternatives, resistance deviation must be checked.
All reviewed candidates use the same 0603 package, ensuring form-fit compatibility.
This is a common resistor value and package, with many manufacturers available.
Direct replacement for RS-03K2402FT should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Start with Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates for RS-03K2402FT, then review parametric alternatives for package and electrical fit.
The primary risk involves using a parametric alternative with a different resistance value (e.g., 22kΩ or 25.5kΩ), which requires circuit validation.
