10.7K Ohm 0.1W 0603 1% SMD Resistor

If your board needs a 10.7k ohm resistor, and the old part is a 1% 0.1W chip in a 0603 body, this is the part to order. It is a 10.7k ohm resistor in a small rectangular surface-mount body, built for precise voltage regulation in solar inverter circuits and power management systems. It fits voltage division and signal work jobs that need a fixed 10.7K value at up to 0.1W. It does not fit jobs that need a different resistance value, a through-hole body, or more than 0.1W of power. Check the checks below before you order, so the value, the power, the voltage, and the body all match your board.

This is an original, high-quality part.

What it does

A resistor limits current and drops voltage in a circuit. A chip resistor does that job as a small flat part that solders straight onto the pads of a board, with metal ends that make the contact. This 10.7k ohm 1% resistor holds its 10.7K value within 1%, so a board that calls for 10.7K gets between 10.593K and 10.807K. The 10.7K value is an E96 value — a fine step in the precision series — which is why it fits circuits where the exact value sets the voltage or the timing. The 0603 body is only about 1.6 mm long, so it fits boards where space is tight.

Repair techs use a part like this as a 10.7k 0603 resistor for voltage regulation, where it takes a share of the voltage so the next stage sees the right level, and for voltage division, where two resistors split a voltage between them. It also fits signal work, where a steady value keeps a signal path clean. You can check the value on the top of the part: a 1% 10.7K 0603 chip carries the EIA-96 marking 04C, which reads as 107 times 100, or 10,700 ohm.

Checks before you order

• Value: your board list must call for 10.7K. A nearby value is not the same part — a 10K part is close but not the same E96 value, so if your board needs 10.7K, stop and check the board list again. An 82k part in the same 0603 body is a different value for a different job, not a swap for this one.
• Power and heat: the power this part turns into heat must stay at or below 0.1W, and that 0.1W counts only up to 70°C ambient — above that, the safe power drops, so check the derating for your real working temperature. Work out the power from your real voltage and current (power = voltage × current) and keep it inside 0.1W with room to spare. This is a small part with little room for heat, so do not run it near its limit.
• Voltage: the voltage across this part must stay at or below about 32.7V in steady use. At this value the power rating is the real limit: at 75V the part would use about 0.53W, far above its rating, even though 75V is the series voltage limit. Work out the voltage from your circuit before you order.
• Tolerance: the real value may sit up to 1% away from 10.7K. If your circuit needs tighter than 1%, this part is the wrong pick — do not hope the part you get sits near the middle.
• Body and fit: your board must take a 0603 surface-mount body. Measure the old part and match it against the pads and the space on your board. The series body is about 1.60 mm long, 0.80 mm wide, and 0.45 mm high — if your old part is much bigger, check the board list again before you order. A 499k part in the same 0603 body is a different value for a different job, not a swap for this one.
• Fit for the job: if your circuit only needs a fraction of a tenth of a watt, this part still works. Match the value first, then the power, then the body — a through-hole resistor is the wrong shape for a surface-mount board, even if the value matches.

Specifications

Other names for the same part (good to know)

Shoppers and repair techs call this same part by a few names. 10.7k ohm is the plain name from its value. 10.7k ohm resistor is the name buyers use with the unit spelled out. 10.7k 0603 resistor is the name buyers use when the body size matters. SMD resistor is the name for its surface-mount style. 10.7k ohm 1% is the short name that carries the value and the tolerance together. If your board list calls for 10.7K at 0.1W with 1% tolerance in a 0603 body, this page is the right match. Do not judge by size alone — check the value, the power, and the tolerance too.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 10.7K mean?

It means 10,700 ohms of resistance. K stands for kilo, which means one thousand, so 10.7K is 10.7 × 1,000 ohms. It is an E96 value, a fine step in the precision resistor series.

What does 1% mean, and what does 0.1W mean?

1% is the tolerance: the real resistance may sit up to 1% above or below 10.7K, so between 10.593K and 10.807K. 0.1W is the power rating: the most power the part can turn into heat without damage, rated at 70°C ambient, with less allowed as it gets hotter.

What is the 04C marking on the body?

It is the EIA-96 code printed on a 1% 10.7K 0603 chip. In the EIA-96 table, 04 stands for 107 and C stands for a multiplier of 100, so 04C means 107 times 100, or 10,700 ohms. The 4-digit value code for the same part is 1072.

Can I use this part at 75 V if the power is small?

No. At 10.7K the 0.1W rating is the limit that matters: it caps the steady voltage at about 32.7V. At 75V this part would use about 0.53W, far above its rating. The 75V figure is the series voltage limit, not a voltage you can use at this value.

How do I fit a 0603 chip resistor?

Solder it onto the matching pads on the board — it has no leads, so it sits flat on the pads. Check the pad spacing against the 1.6 mm body before you solder, use a fine tip and a small amount of solder, and do not overheat the part. A magnifier helps, because the part and its marking are very small.

What is the price of this part?

Check the live price on the website. The price shown on the product page is the current one.

Use note kept from the old page: this part was listed before as a 10.7K ohm SMD resistor for precise resistance and stable voltage regulation in solar inverter circuits, for consistent electrical flow, energy efficiency, and circuit reliability in renewable energy applications and power management — and that use still stands.
