About this product
A 270 ohm fixed resistor rated at 1/4 watt. It is commonly used to limit current through LEDs, in pull-up or pull-down networks, and in general prototyping with Arduino and other development boards. It is a typical value for a single standard LED on a 5V supply.

Frequently asked questions
What is the price of 270 Ohm 1/4W Resistor in Egypt?
270 Ohm 1/4W Resistor currently costs 0.2 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy 270 Ohm 1/4W Resistor in Egypt?
270 Ohm 1/4W Resistor is available from Most Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Can I use it to limit current for a red LED on 5V?
Yes. A typical red LED drops about 2V, so the resistor sees about 3V, which gives roughly 11 mA through the LED. Check your LED's rated current before connecting it.
Is a 1/4 W rating enough for this use?
For the LED example above, the resistor dissipates about 0.03 W, well below the 1/4 W rating. For higher voltages or other values, calculate power with P = V²/R to confirm the rating is sufficient.
