Resistor Questions

Post by jeffslot »

Hi guys,

I'm trying to make an Composite video mod for the 2600. Is there a way to make a 377, 193, 450 from other (resistor) values? Thanks.

yeah, you can theoretically make any resistance value from just a few resistor values. Look up how to combine resistors in series and parallel and how to calculate what the actual resistance will be.
