The 330 Ohm, 1/4 Watt Resistor (Pack of 10) is a set of fixed carbon film resistors providing a resistance of 330 ohms (330Ω) with a power rating of 0.25 watts (1/4W) and a standard ±5% tolerance. -55°C to +155°C.
The 330 Ohm, 1/4 Watt Resistor (Pack of 10) is a set of fixed carbon film resistors providing a resistance of 330 ohms (330Ω) with a power rating of 0.25 watts (1/4W) and a standard ±5% tolerance. These passive components are essential for controlling current levels, protecting digital output pins, and establishing signal levels in electronic circuits.
Featuring standard color-coded axial bands (Orange-Orange-Brown-Gold), these resistors consist of a high-grade carbon film deposited over a ceramic core with a protective flame-retardant coating. The 330Ω value is the most widely used resistor for 5V LED current limiting (such as red, green, yellow, and blue LEDs powered by Arduino or 5V rail), ensuring bright illumination without overloading the microcontroller pin or LED.
Equipped with sturdy, tin-plated axial leads, they plug smoothly into standard breadboards, stripboards, perfboards, and custom printed circuit boards (PCBs). They are fully compatible with 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers including Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, PIC, AVR, and general DIY electronics setups.
