Finding a substitute for the Milliohm HoYLR1206-1W-5mR-1% current sense resistor is straightforward. This 1W, 5mΩ, 1% resistor has several pin-compatible alternatives from manufacturers like Yageo and Vishay, including AEC-Q200 qualified options.

AI replacement insight

Electrical riskmedium

Some alternatives have a higher TCR (e.g., ±150ppm/°C), which can impact precision in temperature-sensitive applications.

Package riskhigh

One candidate is in a 2512 package, which is not a drop-in replacement for the 1206 footprint and requires a board redesign.

Sourcing risklow

Multiple vendors (Yageo, Vishay, Milliohm) offer similar parts, providing good supply chain flexibility.

Can it be replaced directly?

Direct replacement for HoYLR1206-1W-5mR-1% should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.

Best replacement path

PA1206FRF470R005L is the best direct replacement, offering identical specs plus AEC-Q200 qualification. For higher precision, PA1206DRF470R005L is an excellent upgrade.

Main risk

The primary risks when substituting are mismatched Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR) or different package sizes. Some candidates have a worse TCR, while others are in a different package requiring a PCB change.
