Tutorial: How to use 0.680 ohm Resistor
Resistors are fundamental components to limit the flow of electrical current in a circuit. This 0.680 ohm resistor is ideal for Arduino projects, 3D printing or any other project that requires a low value resistor.
What you need
- Arduino Uno
- Jumper Wire
- Multimeter
Steps
- Check the resistance value using a multimeter in ohm mode.
- Connect the resistor between two Arduino pins. For example, connect one end to GND and the other to one of the input/output pins.
- Use the Arduino sketch to measure the value of the resistance with a digital multimeter or read the value of the circuit.
- Check that the resistance does not exceed the power limits (1/4 watt) during use.
Mini project
Create a simple project to measure the electrical current through a resistance using Arduino. Connect the resistance to one of the input/output pins of the Arduino, write the sketch to read the value of the resistance.
Common mistakes
- Using a resistance with a value too low that can cause circuit overload.
- Not verifying the maximum power of the resistance before using it in a project.
Recommended accessories
- Arduino Uno
- Basic Kit for Arduino
- Multicolored jumper wire
Frequently asked questions
How do you read the value of a resistance?
Use a multimeter in ohm mode and connect the terminals of the resistance to the two pins of the multimeter.
What is the difference between 1/4 watt and 1 watt?
The power rating of a resistor indicates how much heat it can dissipate before it gets damaged. A 1/4 watt resistor can handle less heat than a 1 watt resistor.
