Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ESR03EZPJ683 is determined by the following criteria:

Primary Matching Parameters:

• Resistance value: 68 kOhms (exact match required)
• Package / Case: 0603 (1608 Metric) (exact match required)
• Composition: Thick Film (exact match required)
• Automotive Rating: AEC-Q200 (required for automotive applications)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 155°C (minimum requirement)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (required)

Secondary Allowable Variations:

• Tolerance: ±5% or tighter (±1% acceptable as upgrade)
• Power Rating: 0.25W or higher (0.333W acceptable as upgrade)
• Temperature Coefficient: ±200ppm/°C or better (±100ppm/°C acceptable as upgrade)

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: upgrade substitutes (improved tolerance or power rating) and direct substitutes (equivalent specifications).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts meet the core requirements for direct substitution with the ESR03EZPJ683:

ESR03EZPF6802 (Rohm Semiconductor): This upgrade substitute offers improved tolerance (±1% versus ±5%) and lower temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C versus ±200ppm/°C) while maintaining identical power rating and package. Suitable for applications requiring tighter resistance tolerance.

CRCW060368K0JNEAHP (Vishay Dale): This direct substitute maintains ±5% tolerance and ±200ppm/°C temperature coefficient while providing increased power rating (0.333W versus 0.25W). Suitable for applications with higher thermal dissipation requirements.

ERJ-PA3J683V (Panasonic Electronic Components): This direct substitute matches tolerance (±5%) and temperature coefficient (±200ppm/°C) specifications while providing increased power rating (0.333W versus 0.25W). Highest inventory availability among substitutes.

All substitute parts maintain AEC-Q200 automotive qualification, ROHS3 compliance, and -55°C ~ 155°C operating temperature range. Selection should be based on specific circuit requirements for tolerance, power dissipation, and manufacturer preference.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ESR03EZPF6802 replace ESR03EZPJ683 in automotive applications? A: Yes. ESR03EZPF6802 is a qualified upgrade substitute with tighter tolerance (±1%) and lower temperature coefficient (±100ppm/°C). It maintains AEC-Q200 rating, identical package, and operating temperature range.

Q: What is the difference between 0.25W and 0.333W power ratings? A: Power rating indicates maximum continuous power dissipation. The 0.333W rating provides higher thermal capacity. Both ratings are compatible in circuits designed for 0.25W operation; the higher rating provides additional margin.

Q: Are all substitute parts in the same 0603 package? A: Yes. All listed substitutes use 0603 (1608 Metric) package with identical footprint dimensions (0.063" L x 0.031" W or 0.033" W). Physical board compatibility is maintained across all substitutes.

Q: Does tolerance affect circuit performance? A: Tolerance specifies the maximum deviation from nominal resistance value. ±1% tolerance provides tighter resistance accuracy than ±5%. Selection depends on circuit sensitivity to resistance variation.

Q: Are all substitutes ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. All listed substitute parts are ROHS3 compliant with unlimited moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1), matching the original part's environmental compliance.
