Description

The 8E2 Ohm (8R2) 1/4W 1% 1206 SMD Chip Resistor is a high-performance, surface-mount resistor designed for precise and reliable electrical applications. It features a resistance value of 8.2 ohms, with a tolerance of 1%, meaning the actual resistance can vary by no more than 1% from its rated value, ensuring accuracy in most electronic circuits. The resistor's power rating is 1/4 watt (0.25W), allowing it to handle moderate power dissipation, which is ideal for use in standard consumer electronics, automotive, and industrial devices.

The 1206 form factor refers to the physical dimensions of the resistor, measuring 3.2 mm x 1.6 mm (length x width). This compact size allows for use in high-density circuit boards while maintaining performance stability. The SMD (Surface Mount Device) design enables easy and efficient automated placement and soldering during PCB assembly, making it suitable for mass production.

With a 1% tolerance, this resistor ensures a high degree of precision in its electrical properties, making it an excellent choice for sensitive or high-accuracy applications. It is commonly used in various electronic circuits such as voltage dividers, signal processing, current limiting, and feedback circuits. The 1/4W power rating means that it can handle typical current levels in everyday electronic applications without overheating or failure.

This resistor is typically constructed from a metal oxide or metal film, providing durability and stable performance over time, even under changing environmental conditions. It is also resistant to moisture and can be used in a wide range of temperatures, making it versatile for various applications.

Overall, the 8E2 Ohm 1/4W 1% 1206 SMD Chip Resistor is an essential component for modern electronics, offering high precision, reliability, and ease of integration into compact circuit designs.
