Applications
- Inserting into a breadboard to set a voltage divider or bias network while prototyping a microcontroller circuit
- Soldering into perfboard or a custom PCB as a pull-up or pull-down on a digital input line
- Replacing a drifted or failed resistor in audio gear, test equipment, or industrial controls where 1% stability matters
- Stocking a parts bin for ongoing repair work - 200 pieces keeps the bench supplied through a full repair season
- Building signal conditioning stages where carbon film drift would degrade accuracy over temperature
- Hobbyist synth builds, light sensor circuits, and op-amp feedback networks that call for a high-value precision resistor
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these through-hole or surface-mount?
Through-hole axial. Long tinned leads fit standard breadboards and through-hole PCBs. Not compatible with SMT reflow assembly.
What is the operating temperature range?
-55°C to +155°C.
Is 1/8W enough for my application?
At 470k Ohm the voltage across the resistor at 1/8W dissipation is about 243V, so most low-voltage signal circuits will run well within the rating. For best long-term reliability, keep actual dissipation well below the 1/8W maximum.
Why metal film instead of carbon film for this value?
Metal film holds tighter to the stated value over temperature changes - 50 PPM/°C versus the 200-500 PPM/°C typical of carbon film. For audio signal paths, precision measurement, and anything that sees temperature swings, the difference is audible or measurable.
Two hundred resistors is the kind of quantity that disappears faster than you expect - one prototype leads to another, and suddenly the bin is half empty. Stock up now and the next build starts without a parts run.
