Description

The 8E2 Ohm (8.2E) 1W 5% Through Hole Resistor is a standard fixed resistor designed for electronic circuits, offering a resistance of 8.2 ohms. It is built with a tolerance of 5%, which means the actual resistance can vary by 5% from the nominal value of 8.2 ohms. With a power rating of 1 watt, this resistor can safely dissipate up to 1W of power without overheating or failing. The resistor has a through-hole mounting style, which allows it to be inserted into a printed circuit board (PCB) through designated holes and soldered into place. This feature makes it ideal for applications in DIY electronics, repair projects, and professional-grade circuit design.

The resistor's construction typically consists of a ceramic core, metal oxide, or carbon composition materials, depending on the specific variant. Its durable, compact design ensures reliability in various environments, and it is widely used in power regulation, voltage division, and signal conditioning applications. The 5% tolerance indicates that, for precision circuits requiring higher accuracy, a more precise resistor would be needed, but for general-purpose and non-critical applications, this resistor is well-suited. It is compatible with a wide range of devices such as power supplies, amplifiers, and control circuits, offering versatility in its usage.

The 8E2 Ohm resistor is a versatile and economical choice for many electrical and electronic projects where low resistance and medium power dissipation are required.
