Yageo
An identical component from Yageo, this is a direct replacement supplied in bulk packaging instead of tape.
Finding a substitute for the Yageo MFR-25FTF52-1K 1kΩ 1/4W 1% resistor involves checking power, tolerance, and physical size. Several options exist, from direct packaging variants to functional upgrades.
Many alternatives are physically larger due to higher power ratings.
Check for tolerance or technology changes in cross-vendor options.
This is a common resistor value with multiple sources.
Direct replacement for MFR-25FTF52-1K should use only Datasheet verified or Strong match candidates; many approved options still require engineering review.
Use MFR-25FBF52-1K for a direct replacement (check packaging) or MFR50SFTE52-1K for a drop-in performance upgrade.
The main risk is selecting an alternative with a larger physical package that does not fit the PCB layout.
