Description
Technical Specifications
The 0.36 ohm resistor is a fundamental electronic component used to regulate the flow of electric current in circuits. Its 0.36 ohm resistance allows for proportional current limitation according to Ohm’s Law. This component is particularly useful for beginners learning the basics of electronics and for projects requiring a low-value resistance.
The 0.36 ohm resistor, with a 5% tolerance, is available in packs of 50 pieces. Its maximum power rating is 1/4 watt, which limits the energy it can dissipate in the form of heat. It is important to verify the compatibility of the resistor with the circuit in which it will be used to avoid damage or abnormal behavior.
A resistor can be used in various types of circuits, such as those that require current limiting or voltage regulation. It is important to connect the resistor correctly and check the connections before powering the circuit.
