Yageo
A high-precision alternative with a slightly lower resistance of 232kΩ.
Finding a substitute for the Yageo RT0402BRD07240KL, a 240kΩ high-precision thin-film resistor, requires careful parametric review. While several 0402 package alternatives exist, none are a direct drop-in replacement, with most differing in resistance value, tolerance, or TCR.
Most candidates have different resistance, wider tolerance, or higher TCR, impacting circuit performance.
All candidates share the same 0402 package, ensuring physical compatibility.
Alternatives are available from multiple manufacturers, but precision may vary.
No direct, drop-in replacement with identical key parameters was found. All identified alternatives have parametric differences that require engineering review.
Evaluate if a resistance value near 240kΩ (e.g., 232kΩ or 249kΩ) is acceptable. If so, RT0402BRE07232KL and ARG02BTC2493 offer matching precision. If 240kΩ is mandatory, a lower-precision part like RC-02K2403FT is an option, but requires significant design review.
The primary risk is a loss of circuit precision due to differences in resistance value, tolerance, or temperature stability (TCR).

The best alternatives depend on your design's flexibility. If a slight resistance change is acceptable, Yageo's RT0402BRE07232KL (232kΩ) and Viking Tech's ARG02BTC2493 (249kΩ) offer the same high precision. If the 240kΩ value is strict, FH's RC-02K2403FT is an option, but it has lower precision (±1% tolerance).
