The 3K3 Ohm (3.3K) 1W 5% Through Hole Resistor is a standard, high-performance electrical component used for a wide range of electronic circuit applications. With a resistance value of 3,300 ohms (3.3K), this resistor is designed to limit the current flow and maintain proper voltage levels in circuits. It is rated for a power dissipation of 1 watt, meaning it can safely handle up to 1 watt of electrical power without overheating or failure.
The 5% tolerance indicates that the actual resistance value can vary by 5% from the stated nominal resistance, offering a balance between cost and precision. This level of tolerance is suitable for most general-purpose applications, including power supplies, amplifiers, filters, and signal processing circuits.
This resistor has a through-hole mounting type, meaning it is designed to be inserted into a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) through pre-drilled holes and soldered into place, making it ideal for traditional PCB manufacturing and prototyping.
The 1-watt power rating ensures it can handle moderate current loads without overheating, and the standard 5% tolerance makes it a cost-effective option for circuits that do not require ultra-precise resistance values. Made with durable materials for long-lasting performance, this resistor is commonly used in applications where reliability and efficiency are essential, including consumer electronics, industrial equipment, and automotive systems.
Its robust construction and ability to withstand heat and electrical stress make it suitable for use in environments with varying temperature conditions, ensuring consistent performance over a wide range of operating conditions.
