Resistor 0.25W 4.7M ohm (10 pcs)

The Resistor 0.25W 4.7M ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 4.7 MΩ and a power rating of 0.25 W, sold in a pack of 10. At 5 V it passes only about 1 µA, making it useful for capacitive sensing, bias networks for high-impedance inputs and low-power voltage dividers.

Resistor 0.25W 4.7M ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 4.7 MΩ (4,700,000 ohms, also written 4M7)
• Power rating: 0.25 W (1/4 W)
• Type: fixed resistor, axial leads, through-hole
• Colour code: yellow, violet, green (4-band) or yellow, violet, black, yellow (5-band), followed by the tolerance band
• Current at 5 V: about 1.06 µA

Resistor 0.25W 4.7M ohm Applications

• Capacitive touch and proximity sensing
• Input bias for op-amp, JFET and CMOS stages
• Low-power voltage dividers for battery monitoring
• Bleeder resistors across capacitors
• RC delays: 4.7 MΩ × 220 nF ≈ 1 s

What's in the Box

• 10 × 4.7 MΩ 0.25 W resistors

Tip: Most digital multimeters have an input resistance of about 10 MΩ, so when you measure a voltage fed through a 4.7 MΩ resistor the meter itself loads the circuit and reads about a third low. Account for this, or buffer the signal with an op-amp.
