The 8K2 Ohm (8.2K) 1W 5% Through Hole Resistor is a high-quality, fixed resistive component designed for various electronic applications, offering stability and reliability in a wide range of environments. This resistor has a nominal resistance of 8.2kΩ (8,200 ohms) with a tolerance of 5%, meaning the actual resistance value may vary within 5% of the nominal value. It is capable of handling a power rating of 1 watt, making it suitable for applications with moderate power dissipation needs.
This through-hole resistor is built with a standard cylindrical body, making it easy to mount on printed circuit boards (PCBs). The through-hole design ensures a secure mechanical connection for durability and consistent performance. It is commonly used in circuits requiring precise resistance values for current limiting, voltage division, filtering, or biasing in both analog and digital designs.
The resistor's construction typically includes a metal film or carbon film wrapped around a ceramic core, allowing it to offer stable resistance across a wide range of temperatures and environmental conditions. The resistor's tolerance of 5% ensures that it delivers reliable performance in most electronic circuits, though in some applications where more precision is required, tighter tolerance resistors may be preferred.
Ideal for general-purpose electronic devices such as power supplies, amplifiers, oscillators, and other consumer or industrial electronics, the 8K2 Ohm (8.2K) 1W resistor is an essential component in ensuring stable and functional circuit designs.
