Resistor 12 KOHM

Overview

The 12kΩ resistor is an essential passive component for virtually any electronic project. Whether you're prototyping with an Arduino, repairing a PCB, or building a custom circuit, this resistor provides precise resistance to control current flow, set voltage levels, and condition signals. Its compact 0.25W carbon film construction makes it perfect for low-power applications and breadboard-friendly designs.

Key Features

• 12kΩ Resistance: Ideal for voltage dividers, pull-up/pull-down configurations, and current limiting.
• 0.25W Power Rating: Suitable for most low-power signal and control circuits.
• Carbon Film Construction: Offers reliable performance and stability over time.
• Tolerance: ±5% (J) – standard for general-purpose use.
• Through-Hole Package: Easy to solder and insert into breadboards and PCBs.
• Color Code: Brown, Red, Orange, Gold (ensures easy identification).
