100kΩ Resistor

A 100kΩ resistor is a fundamental passive component used to limit current, divide voltage, and bias transistors in electronic circuits. This specific model is a carbon film resistor with a 1/4 watt (0.25W) power rating and ±5% tolerance, making it suitable for a wide range of hobbyist and professional applications. Its axial lead design allows for easy through-hole PCB mounting. Common uses include pull-up/pull-down networks in digital logic, timing circuits with capacitors, and sensor interfaces. Choose this resistor for reliable performance, stable resistance values, and cost-effective bulk packaging. It is a standard component for Arduino projects, power supplies, audio equipment, and educational kits.
