Resistor 0.5W 240K ohm (5 pcs)

The Resistor 0.5W 240K ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 240 kΩ and a power rating of 0.5 W, sold in a pack of 5. High values like this draw very little current, so they suit voltage dividers for measuring higher voltages, transistor and op-amp biasing, and long RC time constants in timer circuits.

Resistor 0.5W 240K ohm Applications

• High-value voltage dividers for battery and supply monitoring
• Biasing transistors and op-amp inputs
• Long RC delays and 555 timer circuits
• Op-amp feedback networks with high gain
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 5 × 240 kΩ 0.5 W resistors

Tip: Resistors have no polarity, so they can be fitted either way round. At 12 V a 240 kΩ resistor passes only 50 µA, which is ideal for low-power dividers; when feeding an ADC input, keep in mind that some microcontrollers read such high-impedance sources less accurately.
