Description

The 15K Ohm 1/8W 5% Through Hole Resistor is a high-quality electronic component designed to provide reliable resistance in various circuits. This resistor has a resistance value of 15,000 ohms (15KΩ), which makes it ideal for use in applications requiring moderate resistance.

It has a power rating of 1/8 watt (0.125W), meaning it can safely dissipate up to 0.125 watts of power without overheating or failing. The resistor’s tolerance is 5%, meaning the actual resistance value may vary within 5% of the stated 15KΩ, ensuring that it meets standard accuracy requirements for most general electronic applications.

This resistor features a through-hole design, which means it is intended to be mounted onto a circuit board by inserting the leads through holes in the board and soldering them in place. This makes it ideal for use in traditional, hand-assembled or automated assembly processes.

Commonly used in low-power circuits such as voltage dividers, signal conditioning, or current limiting applications, this resistor is suitable for use in a wide range of consumer electronics, DIY projects, and prototyping. It is typically made of carbon film or metal oxide materials, providing stable performance over a wide temperature range. The compact size and standard packaging of this resistor allow for ease of use in both small-scale and large-scale electronic designs.
