About this product
A 5.1 Ω fixed resistor from the E24 series, used where a very small resistance is needed, such as current sensing, damping and current limiting in low-voltage circuits. Low-ohm resistors drop only a small voltage at normal currents, which suits these roles. Its value is marked with green, brown and gold color bands.

Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Resistor 5.1 Ω in Egypt?
Resistor 5.1 Ω currently costs between 0.3 and 0.5 EGP across 2 offers in Egypt.
Where can I buy Resistor 5.1 Ω in Egypt?
Resistor 5.1 Ω is available from Circuits Electronics and Future Electronics. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
How do I read the value of this 5.1 Ω resistor?
The bands are green and brown, which give the digits 5 and 1. The gold band is the multiplier ×0.1, so the value is 5.1 Ω.
Can I use it to limit current through an LED?
Not directly on a typical 5 V supply, because 5.1 Ω would let far too much current through an LED. Calculate the value with R = (Supply voltage − LED forward voltage) ÷ LED current.
