Applications
LED current limiting, voltage dividers, transistor biasing, pull-up and pull-down networks, signal conditioning, Arduino and ESP32 projects, breadboard prototyping, PCB assembly and electronics repair.
Usage Notes
Keep continuous resistor dissipation within the 0.25 W rating. Select a lower resistance only when the resulting current and power dissipation are acceptable for the circuit. For precision applications, use a resistor with a tighter tolerance.
Buying & Selection
Choose the resistance value based on the circuit calculation. The 5% tolerance means the actual resistance can vary around the nominal value. Confirm the color-band marking before installation when identifying loose resistors.
