## Frequently asked questions

### Can I use this resistor as a pull-up resistor?

Yes. A 10kΩ pull-up between a microcontroller input and 3.3V or 5V is a common choice for buttons and open-drain signals. At 5V it passes about 0.5 mA and dissipates about 2.5 mW, well below the 0.25W rating.

### How do I identify this resistor's value?

Read the color bands on the body: brown, black, orange for 10kΩ. Confirm with a standard resistor color code chart or measure it with a multimeter.
