Description

The 47 Ohm 1/4W 1% Through Hole Resistor is a high-precision, durable component designed for use in a variety of electronic circuits. This resistor has a resistance value of 47 ohms, offering a stable resistance to the flow of electric current, essential for controlling voltage and current in circuit designs.

With a power rating of 1/4 watt (0.25W), the resistor can safely dissipate up to 0.25 watts of electrical power without overheating or sustaining damage, making it suitable for low to medium-power applications. The 1% tolerance indicates that the actual resistance will be within ±1% of the stated value, ensuring high accuracy and reliability for applications that require precise resistance measurements, such as in signal processing, voltage regulation, and filtering circuits.

This component is a through-hole type, meaning it is designed for insertion into holes on a printed circuit board (PCB) and soldered into place. This type of resistor is commonly used in DIY electronics, prototyping, and repairs due to its ease of installation and secure fit on the PCB. It’s constructed using a metal film or carbon film, providing consistent resistance and minimal noise, which helps in reducing errors in sensitive electronics.

The 47 Ohm 1/4W 1% Through Hole Resistor is widely used in a variety of applications, such as current limiting, voltage division, feedback networks, and pull-up or pull-down applications, and can be found in products like audio equipment, power supplies, sensors, and home appliances. Its compact size and robust performance make it an ideal choice for hobbyists and professional engineers alike.
