10k Ohm Resistor – Pack of 10

Resistors are electronic components that have a specific, never-changingelectrical resistance. The resistor’s resistancelimits the flow of electronsthrough a circuit.

They arepassivecomponents, meaning they only consume power (and can’t generate it). Resistors are usually added to circuits where they complementactivecomponents like op-amps, microcontrollers, and otherintegrated circuits. Common resistors are used to limit current,divide voltages, andpull upI/O lines.

10Kohm Carbon Film Resistors are typical axial-lead resistors, which have much better temperature stability and provide lower noise, and are generally better for high frequency or radiofrequency applications.
