Resistor 1.1K OHM 1/4W 1% Metal Film

Precision 1.1k Ohm Metal Film Resistor Overview

The 1.1k Ohm 1/4 Watt metal film resistor is engineered for high-precision electronic circuits requiring strict resistance accuracy and exceptional thermal stability. Featuring a tight tolerance of +/- 1 percent, this component minimizes resistance drift across variable operating temperatures, making it an ideal choice for critical signal paths, active analog filtering, and precision feedback loops.

Technical Specifications and Performance

Constructed with a vacuum-deposited metallic film layer over a high-grade ceramic core, this axial-lead resistor delivers superior electrical performance compared to standard carbon composition alternatives. It features a rated power dissipation of 0.25 Watts (1/4W) at 70 degrees Celsius, a low temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR), exceptionally low current noise, and minimal voltage coefficient characteristics. The lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction ensures safety and full compatibility with modern automated and manual soldering processes.

Applications and Industry Use-Cases

Due to its precise 1.1k Ohm resistance value and 1 percent tolerance, this component is widely utilized in precision voltage divider networks, operational amplifier gain control circuits, sensor instrumentation interfaces, microcontroller analog-to-digital converter input protection, audio preamplifiers, and telecom hardware. Its reliable stability under varying load conditions ensures long-term operational consistency in both prototype breadboards and industrial production printed circuit boards.

Important Usage and Verification Note

Product images serve as illustrative representations of the axial component form factor and physical packaging layout. Color bands shown in promotional media may not accurately reflect the specific 5-band color code for 1.1k Ohms (typically Brown-Brown-Black-Brown-Brown). Always verify component resistance with a calibrated digital multimeter prior to soldering into target circuitry.
