Resistor 1W 6.8 Ohm 5pcs

The Resistor 1W 6.8 Ohm is a through-hole fixed resistor with a resistance of 6.8 Ω and a power rating of 1 W, sold in a pack of 5. Low-value power resistors like this are used where higher currents flow, for example as current-sense shunts, current limiters for power LEDs and small load resistors for testing power supplies and batteries.

Resistor 1W 6.8 Ohm Specifications

• Resistance: 6.8 Ω

• Pack size: 5 pieces

Resistor 1W 6.8 Ohm Applications

• Current sensing in power supplies and motor drivers
• Current limiting for power LEDs
• Test loads for small power supplies and chargers
• RC snubber networks
• Electronics education and prototyping

What's in the Box

• 5 × 6.8 Ω 1 W resistors

Tip: Resistors have no polarity. Check the power with P = I² × R: the 1 W limit is reached at about 380 mA (about 2.6 V across the resistor). Run it at half its rating for a long life, and keep it away from plastic parts, because it gets hot near full power.
