A form-fit alternative with a higher power rating (0.2W) and AEC-Q200 qualification, but has a higher TCR.
Finding a substitute for the TC02G1000FT, a 100Ω 1% 0402 thin film resistor, requires careful attention to its precision characteristics. Alternatives must be checked for technology and temperature coefficient (TCR) compatibility.
Degradation in temperature stability (TCR) from ±25ppm/℃ to ≥±100ppm/℃.
All candidates match the 0402 package, ensuring form-fit compatibility.
No direct, functionally identical replacement was found among the candidates. All proposed alternatives are thick film and represent a parametric downgrade in TCR.
Search for 0402, 100Ω, 1% resistors specifically with 'Thin Film' technology and a TCR of ±25 ppm/°C or better.
The main risk is substituting a precision thin film resistor with a standard thick film part, leading to reduced thermal stability and precision.

No direct drop-in replacement has been identified. The best alternative depends on your application's tolerance for a higher Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR). Parts like Vishay's CRCW0402100RFKEDC offer the same resistance and package but use thick film technology, which has a higher TCR (±100 ppm/K vs ±25 ppm/℃).
