SMD 1206 Resistor - 100K
Power Rating:
- The power rating indicates how much power the resistor can dissipate without overheating. Common power ratings for SMD resistors include 1/8 W, 1/4 W, and 1/2 W, depending on the size of the resistor.
- For example, a 0603 package typically handles around 0.1 W to 0.25 W, while larger packages like 0805 or 1206 can handle higher power ratings.
Tolerance:
- The tolerance of the resistor is usually given as a percentage, indicating how much the actual resistance may vary from the specified value. Common tolerances include ±1%, ±5%, and ±0.1%.
- For a 100kΩ resistor, if the tolerance is ±1%, the actual resistance could range from 99kΩ to 101kΩ.
