A pack of 20 through-hole 10 kΩ resistors with thick leads designed for a snug fit in solderless breadboards. These are standard ¼ W, ±5% tolerance PTH resistors — ideal for pull-ups, pull-downs, current limiting, and general prototyping.
Specifications
- Resistance – 10 kΩ
- Tolerance – ±5%
- Power Rating – ¼ W (0.25 W)
- Type – Through-hole (PTH), axial
- Lead Type – Thick leads for secure breadboard fit
- Quantity – 20 per pack
Ideal For
- Pull-up and pull-down resistor circuits
- Current limiting and voltage dividers
- Breadboard and perfboard prototyping
- Electronics kits and education
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- Axial
- Axial components have one lead coming out of each end, so they lie flat or span holes on a circuit board or breadboard. This matters when checking whether the resistor will physically fit your prototyping or through-board assembly method.
- PTH
- Plated through-hole means the pin holes are metal-lined so solder connects the pad on both sides of the board. It is useful for connectors and headers that need a strong mechanical and electrical connection.
- Tolerance
- Tolerance tells you how far the real resistance value may be from the printed value. A 1% resistor is useful when a circuit needs more predictable behaviour than a looser 5% or 10% part.
- UPS
- An uninterruptible power supply is a battery-backed power system that keeps a device running when external power is unplugged or fails. For an embedded computer, it helps prevent sudden shutdowns that can corrupt files or interrupt a project.
