Yageo
Strong pin-compatible alternative from Yageo with matching resistance, tolerance, power rating, and 0603 package.
Reviewing alternatives for the RS-03K7681FT, a 7.68kΩ, 1%, 0.1W, 0603 thick film resistor. Several pin-compatible and parametric alternatives exist, requiring careful review of electrical specifications.
Using parts with different resistance, TCR, or technology (thin vs. thick film) requires circuit analysis.
All reviewed candidates use the same 0603 package, minimizing physical layout risks.
Direct replacement for RS-03K7681FT should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
The Yageo RC0603FR-077K68L is the strongest candidate, matching all key electrical and physical parameters.
The main risk is substituting with a part that has a different resistance value or technology (e.g., thin film vs. thick film), which can affect circuit performance and reliability.
