Description
Technical Specifications
The 5.6 Ohm 1/4W 5% Resistor Kit contains 50 pieces of resistors with a value of 5.6 Ohm and a maximum power rating of 1/4 Watt. These resistors are used to limit or regulate current in electronic circuits, ensuring that the current flow does not exceed the safety limits of the resistor. They are suitable for Arduino projects and prototypes, where the precision of the value and power management are crucial.
Resistors are available in a kit of 50 pieces, making it easier to manage and use in projects that require multiple resistors of the same value. The resistance value tolerance is 5%, meaning the actual value can vary by up to 5% from the nominal value of 5.6 Ohm.
