Carbon Resistor 100Ω 0.5W Through Hole

Carbon Resistor 100Ω 0.5W Through Hole

A compact, through-hole 100Ω, 0.5W carbon-style resistor presented as an axial lead component. The body is a small cylindrical element with epoxy coating and axial leads designed for hand or wave soldering. Its form factor suits breadboards, prototyping, and PCB through-hole assemblies where space is limited. Visual identification relies on color bands and standard marking codes.

Constructed for basic circuit duties, the resistor balances simple manufacturing with predictable performance. Under normal conditions it dissipates up to half a watt of power and exhibits gradual thermal rise under load. The component is robust for casual electronics projects, repair work, and low-power signal conditioning; it handles typical soldering temperatures without damage when correct procedures are followed.

Handling is straightforward: orient the axial leads, trim to length after soldering, and avoid prolonged exposure to excessive heat or corrosive solvents to preserve markings. While not optimized for high-reliability or extreme-temperature environments, it offers reliable, low-cost resistance for educational kits, consumer electronics repairs, and general-purpose circuits where tight tolerance and precision stability are not critical. Its simple construction makes sourcing and replacement easy, and the component is commonly available in multiple tolerance and temperature-coefficient options for flexibility. worldwide markets.
