Description

The 4M7 Ohm 1/4W 1% Through Hole Resistor is a precision electronic component designed to provide a stable and reliable resistance value in various applications. This resistor features a nominal resistance of 4.7 MΩ (4,700,000 ohms), making it suitable for high-resistance applications where accurate current limiting or voltage division is required.

Key specifications include a power rating of 1/4 watt (0.25 W), meaning it is capable of dissipating up to 0.25 watts of power without overheating, making it ideal for low-power circuits. The tolerance of 1% indicates that the actual resistance value will be within 1% of the nominal value, ensuring a high level of precision in circuits that require tight resistance specifications.

The resistor has a through-hole design, which means it is intended for use in circuit boards with holes where the leads of the component are inserted and soldered on the other side, providing a secure mechanical connection. This type of resistor is widely used in both professional and DIY electronics for applications such as signal processing, voltage regulation, filtering, and feedback loops.

The 4M7 Ohm resistor is typically made from a durable material such as carbon film or metal oxide, offering long-term stability and resistance to environmental factors like temperature changes. It is commonly found in applications across consumer electronics, automotive systems, telecommunications, and other fields where precise electrical performance is crucial.

Overall, this resistor provides a cost-effective yet high-quality solution for achieving specific resistance values with minimal variation, ensuring the reliable operation of electronic circuits and systems.
