This 5.6KΩ 0.25W through-hole resistor is an essential component for precisely controlling current flow in your electronic projects. Its 5.6KΩ resistance makes it ideal for use in LED circuits, voltage dividers, and various other applications where managing current is crucial. The 0.25W power rating ensures safe operation in standard electronic circuits. The through-hole design allows for convenient mounting on breadboards and printed circuit boards (PCBs), making it a versatile choice for prototyping as well as permanent installations.
The color code for a 5.6KΩ resistor is typically green-blue-red-gold. The first digit (green ) represents 5, the second digit (blue) represents 6, and the third band is red a multiplier of 100. The fourth band (gold in this case) typically represents the tolerance of the resistor, indicating the allowable variation from its stated value. However, for many 4-band resistors, the tolerance is implied to be ±5%.
