Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Carbon Resistor 3.9Ω 0.5W Through Hole in Egypt?
Carbon Resistor 3.9Ω 0.5W Through Hole currently costs 0.25 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Carbon Resistor 3.9Ω 0.5W Through Hole in Egypt?
Carbon Resistor 3.9Ω 0.5W Through Hole is available from Makers Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Can I use this 0.5W resistor where a 1/4W resistor is specified?
Yes. A 0.5W rating is higher than 1/4W, so it handles more power at the same resistance. Its body is slightly larger, so check that it fits your board spacing.
How do I check the power this resistor dissipates?
Use P = I²×R or P = V²/R. For example, a current of 0.3 A through 3.9Ω dissipates about 0.35 W, which is within the 0.5W rating.
