- Repairing power supplies and industrial control boards requiring fail-safe behavior
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these suitable for standard through-hole PCB installation?
Yes, standard axial wire leads mount directly into PCB through-holes, breadboards, or point-to-point solder eyelets.
What is the function of the flameproof coating?
The coating prevents the component body from catching fire or emitting flames when subjected to extreme electrical overloads.
Can an 1/8W component replace a 1/4W rating?
No, an 1/8 watt rating dissipates less continuous heat than a 1/4 watt component and must only replace parts rated at 1/8 watt or lower.
The exact value you need to make a quiet bias circuit behave, sitting untouched since the Bloomfield days. Five clean parts ready for the bench and the iron.
