Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Resistor 270 Ω 1/4 W (Pack of 5) in Egypt?
Resistor 270 Ω 1/4 W (Pack of 5) currently costs 0.75 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Resistor 270 Ω 1/4 W (Pack of 5) in Egypt?
Resistor 270 Ω 1/4 W (Pack of 5) is available from Microohm. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
Is 270 Ω suitable for a red LED on a 5 V supply?
Yes, it is a common choice. With a red LED forward voltage of about 2 V (check your LED's datasheet), the current is roughly (5 − 2) / 270 ≈ 11 mA.
Will this resistor overheat in an LED circuit?
No. In that circuit the resistor drops about 3 V at roughly 11 mA, so it dissipates about 3 × 0.011 ≈ 33 mW, well below the 0.25 W rating.
