680K Ohm 2Watt Carbon Film Resistors
The CFR Series Carbon Film Resistors are precision-engineered by applying a uniform layer of pure carbon onto high-quality ceramic rods. A helical groove is then etched into the resistive layer, and tinned copper leads are welded to the end-caps for secure connections. For added durability, the resistors are coated with multiple layers of tan-colored lacquer. These resistors are designed to operate reliably in ambient temperatures exceeding 70°C, making them ideal for use in high-temperature environments.

How to Use 680K Ohm 2Watt Carbon Film Resistors
Insert the 2W through-hole resistor into your PCB pads or breadboard, ensuring the leads pass cleanly through the hole. Solder each lead to the board while avoiding excessive heat, then trim any excess lead length. Position the resistor away from heat-sensitive components to maintain its power rating and long-term stability.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use these resistors in high-temperature applications?
Yes. These carbon film resistors are rated to operate reliably from –55°C up to 155°C and can handle ambient temperatures above 70°C without performance degradation.
Is the ±5% tolerance sufficient for precision circuits?
For many analog and power applications, ±5% is acceptable. If tighter tolerance is required, consider a metal film resistor or a lower tolerance carbon film option.
How should I store unused resistors to maintain quality?
Store them in a dry, dust-free environment at room temperature. Keep the pack sealed or in anti-static bags to prevent moisture absorption and contamination.
