Resistor 0.5W 10K ohm (5 pcs)

The Resistor 0.5W 10K ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 10 kΩ and a power rating of 0.5 W, sold in a pack of 5. The 10 kΩ value is one of the most used in electronics, especially as a pull-up or pull-down resistor for buttons and microcontroller inputs, so it is worth keeping a few on every workbench.

Resistor 0.5W 10K ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 10 kΩ (10,000 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 10K ohm Applications

• Pull-up and pull-down resistors for push buttons on Arduino and ESP32
• Voltage dividers for reading sensors with an analog input
• Biasing transistors and op-amp circuits
• Limiting current in signal and timing circuits such as the 555 timer
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 5 × 10 kΩ 0.5 W resistors

Tip: Resistors have no polarity, so they can be fitted either way round. Keep the power below 0.5 W: with 10 kΩ that limit is only reached at about 70 V, so it is very safe for 3.3 V, 5 V and 12 V circuits.

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