What is Wattage for Resistors? How to choose the right Resistor? | Practical Video

Do we have to take into our consideration the resistance value factor only for a Resistor while designing our electrical circuits?
Can Rated Power factor for our Resistor be a crucial factor?
In this video Electrical Engineering Planet will cover everything about rated power for Resistors.
Also EEP will show you a practical video about the consequences of not well choosing the rated power value for Resistors

  1. *The cost difference really adds up if you are ordering quantities of 50 to 100 or most obviously, 1000 each in a wide variety of values. I also greatly dislike working with 1/8 and 1 watt resistors. In a lot of D.C. circuits, 1/8 watt are perfectly fine, but if you are using perfboard, I personally find them unpleasant to work with.*
    Installing 1/8 watt on a PCB wouldn’t be a significant hassle, but I would personally still dislike using them.

  2. hi, I want to use two smd resistors with a power of 1/2 w connected in parallel, the value of one is R020 /1210/, instead of one smd resistor 1 w R010 /1218/? because I can”t buy SMD 1 W resistor /1218/.
