A 2.2 kΩ (2,200 ohm) resistor is a standard electronic component used to limit current or drop voltage in circuits, most commonly found as a 1/4-watt carbon or metal film part.
Key Specifications
- Resistance Value: 2,200 ohms (2.2 kΩ or 2K2)
- Standard Power Rating: 1/4 Watt (0.25W)
- Common Tolerance: ±5% (standard carbon film) or ±1% (precision metal film)
- Mounting Type: Through-hole (axial) for breadboards and PCBs
Color Code Bands
If you are reading a standard 4-band color-coded resistor, the bands are:
- Red (2)
- Red (2)
- Red (Multiplier ×100)
- Gold or Brown (Tolerance: Gold is ±5%, Brown is ±1%)
