Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Carbon Resistor 4.7Ω 0.5W Through Hole in Egypt?
Carbon Resistor 4.7Ω 0.5W Through Hole currently costs 0.25 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Carbon Resistor 4.7Ω 0.5W Through Hole in Egypt?
Carbon Resistor 4.7Ω 0.5W Through Hole is available from Makers Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Can I use 4.7Ω as the current-limiting resistor for an LED?
No, not for a typical LED. With a 5 V supply and a 2 V LED drop, about 0.64 A would flow, far above LED ratings, and the resistor would dissipate about 1.9W, well beyond its 0.5W rating. Use a value in the hundreds of ohms for an LED.
What is the maximum current for this resistor?
Using P = I²×R, the current should stay below about 0.3 A (0.3² × 4.7 ≈ 0.42 W) to remain within the 0.5W rating, with some margin recommended.
