Overview
The Motorola 6-6336 resistor file pack represents classic electronics-grade passive component design. This new old stock (NOS) carbon composite resistor delivers 270 Ohm resistance in a 1W power package with ±10% tolerance rating. Originally manufactured by Motorola, a trusted name in vintage electronics components, this unit is suitable for replacement and restoration work in vintage radio, amateur radio, test equipment, and industrial electronics applications.
Key Features
- Resistance: 270 Ohm
- Power Rating: 1 Watt
- Tolerance: ±10%
- Construction: Carbon composite
- Condition: New old stock (NOS), factory original packaging
- Manufacturer: Motorola
Technical Specifications
The Motorola 6-6336 carbon composite resistor exhibits the robust thermal and electrical characteristics expected of mid-century through 1980s electronics design. Carbon composite resistors of this era tolerate moderate temperature cycling and maintain stable resistance values across typical industrial temperature ranges. The ±10% tolerance is standard for general-purpose carbon film resistors of this vintage.
Typical Applications
- Vintage radio and audio equipment repair
- Amateur radio (ham radio) equipment restoration
- Test and measurement instrument refurbishment
- Industrial control circuit replacement
- Collector-grade electronics project restoration
- Educational electronics labs requiring period-correct components
Compatibility & Replacements
Compatible With
- Any circuit requiring a 270 Ohm, 1W resistor
- Vintage radio and electronic equipment (verify circuit schematic before substitution)
- General-purpose AC and DC circuits
Replaces / Drop-In Replacement For
The Motorola 6-6336 serves as a direct replacement for original Motorola file pack resistors in classic electronics. Verify the specific circuit application and tolerance requirements before installation. Modern equivalent 270 Ohm, 1W resistors (such as metal oxide or thin-film types) may be used in some applications, though this NOS component preserves authenticity in vintage restoration projects.
Works With
- Standard through-hole circuit board layouts
- Radial and axial lead configurations in classic electronics design
- Both AC and DC circuit applications within power rating limits
