Description

The 30K Ohm 1/4W 1% Through Hole Resistor is an electronic component designed to limit or regulate the flow of electrical current within a circuit. It has the following specifications:

• Resistance: 30,000 ohms (30KΩ), which means it offers a high level of resistance to the current flow. This value is useful in applications where precise current control is needed, such as in voltage dividers, filters, or biasing circuits.

• Power Rating: 1/4 watt (0.25W), meaning it can safely dissipate up to 0.25 watts of power without overheating or damaging the component. This makes it suitable for low-power applications, providing reliability in circuits where power dissipation is minimal.

• Tolerance: 1%, which indicates the resistor’s tolerance in terms of its actual resistance value. A 1% tolerance means that the actual resistance value will be within 1% of the nominal 30KΩ value, providing a high degree of accuracy for precise circuits or measurements.

• Package Type: Through-hole, which refers to the method of mounting the resistor. Through-hole resistors are designed with leads that go through holes in the circuit board, making them ideal for manual soldering and ensuring a strong mechanical connection to the board.

• Durability and Reliability: The resistor is built to withstand normal operating conditions, offering long-term performance in both professional and hobbyist applications. It is made from high-quality materials, ensuring stability over time, with minimal variation in its resistance value.

This type of resistor is commonly used in applications such as amplifiers, signal processing, power supplies, and other circuits where a stable and precise resistance is essential. Its 1% tolerance ensures that it maintains accuracy in critical designs, and its through-hole configuration makes it easy to install on a wide range of electronic projects.
