Carbon Resistor 150Ω 0.5W Through Hole

Carbon Resistor 150Ω 0.5W Through Hole

The Carbon Resistor 150 Ω 0.5 W Through‑Hole from RS Pro’s axial carbon‑film series offers a reliable, cost‑effective solution for general‑purpose circuit applications. Encased in a ceramic body measuring 2.3 mm in diameter by 6.3 mm in length, it provides a nominal resistance of 150 Ω with ±5% tolerance. The resistor’s axial lead configuration (0.55 mm diameter, 28 mm length) ensures straightforward through‑hole mounting on PCBs, compatible with both automated insertion and manual soldering processes.

Constructed around a carbon‑film element precisely deposited onto a ceramic rod, this component features welded, solder‑plated copper end caps for robust mechanical strength and excellent solderability. An epoxy resin coating protects against solvents, abrasion, and chipping, enhancing long‑term stability. The temperature coefficient ranges from –500 to +350 ppm/°C, limiting drift under thermal variations and moisture exposure.

Rated for continuous dissipation of 0.5 W at 70 °C ambient with a maximum working voltage of 300 V (overload up to 500 V), this resistor is qualified to IEC 115‑1/-2 standards. Its rugged construction withstands mechanical stress, damp‑heat conditions, and pulse overloads, making it suitable for equipment demanding moderate power handling, low noise, and high reliability.
