Resistor 0.25W 2.7M ohm (10 pcs)

The Resistor 0.25W 2.7M ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 2.7 MΩ and a power rating of 0.25 W, sold in a pack of 10. It is often used as a feedback resistor in high-gain op-amp stages, in touch and proximity sensors, and to safely drain stored charge from capacitors.

What's in the Box

• 10 × 2.7 MΩ 0.25 W resistors

Tip: At 2.7 MΩ the 0.25 W limit is only reached at about 820 V, so the resistor's maximum working voltage, not its power rating, is the real limit; check it before using the resistor across high voltages. When checking it with a multimeter, do not hold both leads with your fingers, because your body resistance in parallel makes the reading lower than 2.7 MΩ.

Orders placed before 14:00 are ready for pickup the same day. Delivery across Lebanon usually takes 1–3 working days.
