Description

A 3.6K Ohm (3K6) 1/4W 5% 1206 SMD Chip Resistor is a surface-mount resistor with the following specifications:

• Resistance: 3.6K Ohms (3600 Ohms), providing controlled resistance for current regulation and voltage division in electronic circuits.
• Power Rating: 1/4W (0.25 watts), ensuring safe operation without excessive heat buildup.
• Tolerance: 5%, meaning the actual resistance may vary by ±5% from the nominal 3.6K Ohm value.
• Package Size: 1206, with physical dimensions of 3.2 mm × 1.6 mm, making it ideal for compact, high-density circuit designs.

This resistor is typically used in low-power, general-purpose electronic applications such as signal processing, voltage regulation, and pull-up/down resistor configurations. Its small size and SMD design make it well-suited for modern electronic devices with space-constrained PCBs.
