Viking Tech
A strong pin-compatible alternative from Viking Tech with matching package, resistance, tolerance, power, and TCR.
Yageo's RT0805BRD0710KL is a high-precision 10kΩ thin-film resistor in an 0805 package. When seeking alternatives, it's crucial to match its ±0.1% tolerance and 25 ppm/°C TCR for precision applications.
Using a part with wider tolerance or higher TCR will compromise circuit performance.
Alternatives exist in smaller packages (0603) but require board layout changes.
Precision 10kΩ 0805 resistors are available from multiple manufacturers.
Yes, a direct replacement exists. ARG05BTC1002 from Viking Tech is a pin-compatible match for package and key electricals.
The most direct path is a cross-vendor pin-to-pin part like ARG05BTC1002, which matches all critical parameters.
Using a common thick-film resistor, which will severely degrade circuit precision due to higher tolerance and TCR.
