Description
Resistors are fundamental components in electrical and electronic circuits, used to control current flow, divide voltages, and protect sensitive components. The 1.2K ohm (1,200 ohms) 1/4 watt resistor with a ±5% tolerance is a commonly used resistor, offering a good balance between resistance value, power rating, and tolerance. This type of resistor is easily identifiable by its color code.
Features:
Resistance Value: The resistor has a resistance of 1,200 ohms (1.2K ohms), which limits the flow of electric current according to Ohm's Law (V = IR).Power Rating: This resistor can dissipate up to 1/4 watt (0.25W) of power without being damaged. The power rating indicates the maximum energy it can safely convert to heat.
Tolerance: The ±5% tolerance means the actual resistance value can vary by 5% above or below the specified 1.2K ohm. This tolerance is suitable for many general-purpose applications where precise resistance values are not critical.
Color Code: The resistor's value is indicated by a series of colored bands. For a 1.2K ohm resistor with ±5% tolerance, the color bands are:
Brown: First digit(1)
RedSecond digit (2)
Red (x100)
Gold (±5%)
Applications:
These resistor values are in the kilohm range and are commonly used in various electronic circuits for current limiting, voltage regulation, biasing, filtering, and signal conditioning. The color codes provided help identify each resistor's resistance values and tolerance levels, aiding in their selection for specific circuit applications.Technical Details
