SMD code 52R0 — 52 Ω
A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is a four-digit marking: the R is the decimal point — 52.0 Ω. Parts marked this way are usually ±1% or tighter.

reads as
52 Ω
Same value, other markings
52 Ω is printed several ways depending on the part's precision and size. A board can carry all of them at once.
How much it can take
| Across it | Dissipated | Smallest package that copes |
|---|---|---|
| 5 V | 481 mW | 1 W |
| 12 V | 2.77 W | no standard part — needs a power resistor or a heatsink |

Codes you will mistake it for
One character apart from 52R0. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
