Detailed Specs:

The RT1206BRD101M features a resistance value of 100Ω (101 indicates 10 x 10^0 Ohms) with a tolerance of ±20% (indicated by 'M'). The temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) is ±200 ppm/°C. It has a power rating of 0.25 W and a maximum operating voltage of 200 V. The operating temperature range is from -55°C to +155°C. The resistor is constructed using a ceramic substrate with a thick film resistive element and a protective overcoat. The terminations are made of a nickel barrier with solder plating. The packaging is available in tape and reel for automated assembly. This resistor is typically used in applications where a general-purpose resistance is needed, and the tolerance of ±20% is acceptable. It is a cost-effective solution for many common electronic circuits. Yageo's commitment to quality ensures that the RT1206BRD101M meets or exceeds industry standards for performance and reliability.
