Resistors are one of the most basic yet crucial components in all electronic devices, but what do they actually do, and how ...

In such situations, you’ll want to go to the nearest scale value above the resistor’s rating. For example, if you had a 100 K ohm resistor, you would use the 200 K ohm scale. If you had a 300 ...

Sure, that extra 0.5 ohms won’t matter if you are looking at a 100K resistor, but if you are trying to measure, say, the heated bed of a 3D printer, that extra 0.5 ohms is a large percentage of ...
