Resistor 0.5W 1.5 ohm (5 pcs)

The Resistor 0.5W 1.5 ohm is a low-ohm through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 1.5 Ω and a power rating of 0.5 W, sold in a pack of 5. 1.5 Ω is a common E6 value for current-sense, protection and LED driver circuits that carry up to about half an amp.

Resistor 0.5W 1.5 ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 1.5 Ω
• Power rating: 0.5 W (1/2 W)
• Maximum current at 0.5 W: about 577 mA (P = I² × R)
• Series: standard E6 value
• Type: fixed resistor, axial leads, through-hole
• Fits: breadboards, perfboards and PCBs
• Pack size: 5 pieces

Resistor 0.5W 1.5 ohm Applications

• Current sensing in chargers and power circuits
• Current limiting for power LEDs
• Emitter resistors in transistor amplifier stages
• Series protection in small power supplies
• Electronics repair and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 5 × 1.5 Ω 0.5 W resistors

Tip: Resistors have no polarity. With 1.5 Ω, a 200 mA current drops 0.3 V and makes 0.06 W of heat; the 0.5 W limit is reached at about 577 mA, so pick a larger resistor for heavier loads.
