Additional Details

The 0402 package is a standard miniature size for chip resistors and is often used when space is limited on the circuit board. The ±5% tolerance indicates the accuracy of the resistor's value. The temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) specifies how much the resistance changes with temperature. The nickel barrier termination ensures excellent solderability and prevents solder leaching during reflow soldering. Thick film resistors provide a good balance between cost and performance.

This resistor is commonly used in applications where a small, reliable, and cost-effective 1.5kΩ resistance is required.
