Description

The 68K Ohm 2W 5% Through Hole Resistor is a high-quality, durable electronic component designed to limit the current flow within an electrical circuit by providing resistance. This resistor has a resistance value of 68,000 ohms (68KΩ), which makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly where precise current control is necessary. With a power rating of 2 watts (2W), it is designed to handle moderate power levels without overheating or being damaged.

The 5% tolerance specification indicates that the resistor’s actual resistance value will vary within a range of ±5% of the nominal 68KΩ value, offering flexibility in less demanding applications where absolute precision is not critical. The tolerance of 5% is standard for resistors used in general-purpose circuits, where small deviations from the nominal resistance do not significantly affect performance.

The through-hole design ensures easy installation on printed circuit boards (PCBs), where it can be inserted into holes and soldered into place. This type of resistor is ideal for applications where traditional mounting is required, providing secure connections and mechanical stability in various consumer electronics, industrial devices, and automotive circuits.

Constructed with high-quality materials for optimal heat dissipation and reliability, this resistor is built to withstand regular use and extreme conditions without compromising its performance. Its 2W power rating also means it is more capable of handling higher currents than typical low-power resistors, making it suitable for circuits with moderate power demands.

Commonly used in signal processing, voltage regulation, and filtering applications, the 68K Ohm 2W 5% Through Hole Resistor is an essential component for creating stable and reliable electrical circuits. Its versatility, power handling capabilities, and ease of integration make it an excellent choice for both hobbyists and professionals working in electronics design and repair.
