Resistor 0.5W 1.2K ohm (5 pcs)

The Resistor 0.5W 1.2K ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 1.2 kΩ and a power rating of 0.5 W, sold in a pack of 5. It is a useful value for low-current LED indicators, base resistors that let a microcontroller pin switch a transistor, and voltage dividers in Arduino and ESP32 projects.

Resistor 0.5W 1.2K ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 1.2 kΩ (1,200 ohms)
• Power rating: 0.5 W (1/2 W)
• Type: fixed resistor, axial leads, through-hole
• Fits: breadboards, perfboards and PCBs
• Pack size: 5 pieces

Resistor 0.5W 1.2K ohm Applications

• Low-current LED indicators: about 2.5 mA for a red LED on 5 V
• Base resistors for NPN transistors such as the BC547 or 2N2222
• Voltage dividers and level shifting
• Biasing transistor and op-amp circuits
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 5 × 1.2 kΩ 0.5 W resistors

Tip: Resistors have no polarity, so they can be fitted either way round. With 1.2 kΩ, the 0.5 W limit is reached at about 24.5 V across the resistor, so check the power (P = V² / R) when using it at higher voltages.

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