Resistor 0.5W 5.1K ohm (5 pcs)

The Resistor 0.5W 5.1K ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 5.1 kΩ and a power rating of 0.5 W, sold in a pack of 5. It is the value used on the CC pins of a USB Type-C power input so that a charger recognises the device and supplies 5 V, and it also works well as a pull-up or pull-down resistor and in voltage dividers.

Resistor 0.5W 5.1K ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 5.1 kΩ (5,100 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 5.1K ohm Applications

• CC pull-down resistors for USB Type-C power inputs, one on each CC pin
• Pull-up and pull-down resistors for buttons and logic inputs
• Voltage dividers for analog sensor readings
• Transistor biasing and op-amp gain setting
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 5 × 5.1 kΩ 0.5 W resistors

Tip: Resistors have no polarity, so they can be fitted either way round. With 5.1 kΩ the 0.5 W limit is only reached at about 50 V across the resistor, so it is very safe for 3.3 V, 5 V and 12 V circuits.
