This through-hole resistor is a simple, breadboard-friendly passive component for prototyping and general electronics work. It is commonly used with breadboards and perf boards, making it handy for pull-ups, pull-downs, voltage dividers, current limiting and signal conditioning.
The leads are designed to be more breadboard-friendly than SparkFun's previous versions, with a slightly thicker lead thickness for easier insertion and reuse during prototyping.
Supplied as a single resistor. Documentation available from the supplier includes a datasheet plus learning material covering breadboards, sensor interfacing and voltage dividers.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- 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.
