Reed 2A
Brand: Reed
The Reed 2A is a type of resistor, commonly used in electronic circuits. It is a carbon composition resistor that was popular during the 1960s and 1970s due to its robust nature and stability. The "2A" designation refers to its rating in watts, indicating that it can safely dissipate up to 2 watts of power without exceeding its maximum operating temperature. Carbon composition resistors like the Reed 2A consist of a mixture of carbon particles, binders, and other materials encapsulated in a ceramic body, which provides high resistance values and tolerance to mechanical stresses. Although newer technologies like surface mount metal film and thin film resistors have largely replaced carbon composition types, some engineers still prefer the Reed 2A due to its reliability and low cost for low-power applications.
