Milliohm
Pin-compatible alternative with a higher power rating (3W vs 2W) and matching key electricals.
Find and compare alternatives for the MFL12HR050FT, a 2W, 50mΩ, 1% resistor in a 2512 package. Top candidates offer higher power ratings, but TCR must be considered.
Low if TCR is matched or better; medium if TCR is worse.
All top candidates use the same 2512 package.
Availability and pricing may vary across different manufacturers.
Yes, VMS-R050-1.0-U and HoYLR2512-3W-50mR-1% are strong candidates for direct replacement, offering upgraded power in the same 2512 package.
Upgrade to VMS-R050-1.0-U for improved power handling and thermal stability.
The main risk is selecting a part with a worse Temperature Coefficient (TCR), which can affect circuit accuracy.
