Resistor question

Post by Designer noob »

Bacteria said, that I should get a couple types of resistors becasue the voltage can vary. I went and got 1.8k, 2k, and 2.2k. I was wondering how do I calculate, which one to use? Thanks.

Those are the resistor types used for the 3.3 volt regulator. Using one 1.8k will get you the closest to 3.3 volts. So that should be fine. Remember in the future though to be a bit more clear about what you're talking about.
