Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Resistor 68Ω 1/4W (Pack of 5) in Egypt?
Resistor 68Ω 1/4W (Pack of 5) currently costs 0.75 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy Resistor 68Ω 1/4W (Pack of 5) in Egypt?
Resistor 68Ω 1/4W (Pack of 5) is available from Microohm. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
What is the maximum current through this resistor?
At its 0.25 W rating, the maximum current is about 61 mA (I = √(P/R)). Keep the circuit current below this value to avoid overheating.
Can I use it to limit current for a red LED on a 5 V supply?
Not well. With a typical red LED (about 2 V forward drop), the current would be roughly (5 − 2) ÷ 68 ≈ 44 mA, above the usual 20 mA limit for indicator LEDs. A value around 150 Ω gives about 20 mA.
