Description

The 2K Ohm 1/4W 1% 1206 SMD Chip Resistor is a high-performance surface-mount resistor designed for a wide range of electronic applications. It has a resistance value of 2,000 Ohms, making it suitable for applications that require precise current limiting or voltage division in circuits. With a power rating of 1/4 watt (0.25W), it is ideal for low-power applications where space and efficiency are critical.

The 1% tolerance indicates that the resistor’s actual resistance will vary by no more than 1% from the nominal 2K Ohm value, ensuring reliable and predictable performance in sensitive circuits. This level of precision is crucial for maintaining circuit integrity in high-accuracy applications, such as signal processing, audio equipment, or precision measurement systems.

The 1206 package size (measuring approximately 3.2mm x 1.6mm) is a standard for surface-mount devices, offering a compact form factor that is easy to integrate into high-density PCB designs. This size allows for efficient use of space while maintaining robustness against mechanical stress and thermal cycling.

This chip resistor is made from a thin-film construction or thick-film construction, depending on the manufacturer, allowing it to achieve high precision and low temperature coefficients, ensuring stable performance across a wide range of environmental conditions. Its construction also makes it highly durable, with resistance to vibration, humidity, and other harsh environmental factors.

Common applications include use in telecommunications, automotive electronics, consumer devices, and industrial control systems where a small, precise, and reliable resistor is required. With its high-quality build, this 2K Ohm SMD resistor offers excellent performance in both commercial and military-grade electronics.
