Product Description The 82k Ohm 1/2 Watt Resistor is a robust passive component designed for higher power handling in electronic circuits compared to standard 1/4 watt variants. These carbon film resistors feature a 5% tolerance, making them suitable for reliable current limiting, voltage division, and signal conditioning in industrial and hobbyist projects. The 0.5W power rating provides an extra safety margin and durability for applications prone to heat buildup or slight overcurrent conditions.

Key Features

  • Enhanced Power Handling: 1/2 Watt (0.5W) rating allows for safer operation in circuits with higher current loads.

  • Axial Through-Hole Leads: Standard leads for secure mounting on breadboards and easy soldering on PCBs.

  • Colour Code Identification: Quick manual sorting via the standard 4-band colour code (Grey, Red, Orange, Gold).

  • Carbon Film Stability: High-quality construction ensures excellent heat and humidity resistance over time.

  • Flame Retardant Coating: Built with a protective layer to prevent combustion during electrical overloads.

Technical Details

  • Maximum Working Voltage: Rated to handle up to 300V - 350V in standard circuit environments.

  • Overload Surge Voltage: Capable of withstanding peak surges up to 700V for short durations.

  • Operating Temperature: Maintains resistance accuracy within a range of -55°C to +155°C.

  • Resistance Shift: Designed to remain within ±3% of the nominal value after 1,000 hours of use at rated power.

  • Temperature Coefficient: Typically rated at ±450 ppm/°C, ensuring stability during heat cycles.

  • Moisture Resistance: Sealed with a protective lacquer to prevent oxidation in high-humidity areas.

  • Lead Material: Solder-plated copper-clad steel leads for superior wetting and mechanical strength.

  • Body Size: Slightly larger than 1/4W resistors (approx. 3.2mm x 9.0mm) for better heat dissipation.

  • Dielectric Strength: Provides high insulation between the resistive element and the external environment.

  • RoHS Compliant: Manufactured using lead-free processes to meet modern environmental standards.

  • Audio Performance: Low current-noise levels make it suitable for high-impedance audio and signal paths.

  • Mounting Compatibility: Fits all standard 0.1" pitch breadboards and prototyping boards.

Prototyping and Engineering Tips from Robogears

  • 9V Battery Use: In 9V battery applications, this resistor can act as a high-impedance pull-up for CMOS logic, drawing negligible current (~0.11mA) while maintaining signal integrity.

  • 18650 Monitoring: Use two of these in a voltage divider to monitor 18650 cell levels with a microcontroller; the 0.5W rating provides extra thermal headroom if the circuit stays active for long periods.

  • IC Protection: Ideal for protecting sensitive microcontroller inputs from high-voltage spikes or as a gate resistor for large Power MOSFETs.

  • Related Products: We recommend pairing these with our Half-Size Breadboards and 22 AWG Silicone Jumper Wires.

Package Includes

  • 5 x 82k Ohm 1/2 Watt Carbon Film Resistors.
