Resistance Value (330K ohms): The nominal resistance is 330,000 ohms, commonly denoted as 330K. The unit “K” represents kiloohms, indicating a thousand ohms.
Power Rating (1/4 watt): The resistor can handle a maximum power dissipation of 0.25 watts without being damaged.
Tolerance (5%): The tolerance of 5% means that the actual resistance of the resistor can vary by up to 5% from the specified 47K ohms. The tolerance provides a range within which the actual resistance may fall.
Type of Resistor (Carbon Film): This resistor is constructed using carbon film technology. Carbon film resistors consist of a thin layer of carbon deposited on a ceramic rod. They are commonly used in various electronic applications.
Application in DIY Kits: This resistor is suitable for use in electronic DIY kits, indicating its versatility for hobbyist and educational projects where users assemble electronic components to create functional circuits.
