Resistor 0.25W 3.3 ohm (10 pcs)

The Resistor 0.25W 3.3 ohm is a quarter-watt through-hole resistor with a resistance of 3.3 Ω, sold in a pack of 10. This standard E12 value is a frequent choice for current-sense resistors, MOSFET gate resistors and snubber networks, where the resistance must stay low to avoid wasting voltage.

Resistor 0.25W 3.3 ohm Applications

• Current sensing: 100 mA through 3.3 Ω gives 0.33 V
• Gate resistors between a gate-driver IC and a MOSFET
• RC snubber and Zobel networks
• Emitter resistors in small output stages
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 10 × 3.3 Ω 0.25 W resistors

Tip: 3.3 Ω (orange, orange, gold) is easy to mix up with 3.3 kΩ (orange, orange, red) or 330 Ω (orange, orange, brown). Keep low-value resistors in their own labelled drawer to avoid mistakes.
