Description

The 820K Ohm 1/4W 1% Through Hole Resistor is a high-precision electronic component designed for use in various electronic circuits where accurate resistance is essential. This resistor has a resistance value of 820,000 ohms (820K ohms), making it suitable for applications that require a high resistance to limit current flow or set voltage levels.

Key specifications:

• Resistance Value: 820K ohms (820,000 ohms), offering a high level of resistance for controlling electrical current and voltage in circuits.
• Power Rating: 1/4 Watt (0.25W), meaning it can safely dissipate up to 0.25 watts of power without overheating. This makes it suitable for low-power applications.
• Tolerance: 1%, indicating a high level of accuracy in the resistor's resistance value. The actual resistance will be within ±1% of the nominal 820K ohm value, providing reliable and consistent performance.
• Construction: This is a through-hole resistor, meaning it is designed for insertion into a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) with leads that are soldered to the board. This construction type is ideal for applications where the resistor needs to be mounted securely and where ease of replacement is important.
• Size and Form Factor: The resistor is typically packaged in the standard 1/4 watt form factor, commonly seen in electronic devices, which ensures compatibility with various circuits and allows for easy handling and soldering.
• Material and Durability: The resistor is typically made of a ceramic or metal oxide material, which is designed for durability, reliability, and stability over time. It is resistant to environmental factors such as temperature fluctuations, ensuring that the resistance value remains constant in a variety of conditions.

Applications: This 820K Ohm 1/4W 1% Through Hole Resistor is widely used in precision circuits, including voltage dividers, signal conditioning circuits, filters, and biasing circuits. Its high resistance and accuracy make it ideal for use in audio equipment, telecommunications, measurement instruments, and other electronic systems requiring precise current regulation.

The 1% tolerance ensures that the resistor performs consistently and accurately, making it suitable for both prototyping and production environments where performance reliability is critical. Its through-hole design ensures secure installation in PCBs, providing both mechanical stability and electrical performance in a variety of electronic applications.
