Resistor 0.25W 3K ohm (10 pcs)

The Resistor 0.25W 3K ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 3 kΩ and a power rating of 0.25 W (1/4 W), sold in a pack of 10. 3 kΩ is a standard E24 value; together with a 1.5 kΩ resistor it makes a divider that turns a 5 V signal into about 3.3 V for the ESP32 and other 3.3 V boards. It is also used for biasing and gain networks.

Resistor 0.25W 3K ohm Applications

• 5 V to 3.3 V voltage dividers with a 1.5 kΩ resistor
• Voltage dividers for analog inputs
• Transistor biasing
• Op-amp gain networks
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 10 × 3 kΩ 0.25 W resistors

Tip: For a 5 V to 3.3 V divider, connect 1.5 kΩ from the 5 V signal to the input pin and 3 kΩ from the input pin to ground. With 3 kΩ, the 0.25 W limit is reached at about 27 V across the resistor.
