This video was perfect for me (a complete layman) to get a good understanding of exactly what they do. They can be extremely simple, somewhat complex and smart, but absolutely necessary in so many cases. Side note; What a beautiful world we live in. The deeper you look at something, the more you want to find. But the more you do find, the more interesting and exciting (and often complex) it gets! There’s so many pools of knowledge and information in everything around us if you have a look. One day I’m extremely interested in a video about the engineering and evolution of a soda can, and the next it’s a resistor.

I went to Naval Avionics School in 1972 and all I remember working with resistors that were carbon and wire wound. I worked in a TV repair shop a few years before that at 16. We actually had some electronics classes in the high school I went to. They sure don’t teach that in high school anymore. I worked in electronics all but a few years of my work career. Worked on some cool things from oil well logging tools for 8 years and then 31 years in telecom working on digital transport all over Alaska and some overseas.

I believe the resistor placement doesn't matter. This is as you said because it creates sort of a barrier slowing down the flow, and it'll be slowed either before or after the LED. If it's slowed after the LED there's still that sort of "Jam" no matter what. I also believe the resistor shown has a resistance of 1200 Ohms with a tolerance of + - 2%.

I also determined 1.2k ohms. That's because when he asked the question in the video, he had the resistor one way, and then when he answered the question, he flipped the resistor for some reason. That meant we looked at the colored bands backwards. I'm not sure if there is an easy way to know which direction is the right one, but for a training video, it would have been nice to have it lined up properly.

OMG THANK YOU! Been trying to get my head around resistors for years and gave up several times. Because I couldn't get my head around how they dissipate heat or how to work this out. I always thought that the more work a resistor has to do, the hotter it would get, because it has to resist more... but this is completely wrong! It's the amount of current it lets through that causes the heat and things make sense to me now. I've always shied away from voltage dividers because of my lack of understanding in this, and keeping my circuits simple and using external components such as buck convertors to do what I wanted.

Your assumption is only valid if the speed of the water pre-obstruction was constant. But, on that model, if you cover the whole channel, the speed of the stream would be infinite, which is obviously impossible. So, the higher the resistance (the covering of the channel), the lower the current (the water stream after the covering), for the same voltage (the height of the water pre-covering or pressure).

You forgot temperature coefficient, which is usually indicated after the tolerance band. There are a lot of applications where a low tempco is more important than a low initial tolerance. Carbon comp resistors are still relevant in high frequency applications where any stray inductance is undesirable.
@d614gakadoug9
@d614gakadoug9 Жыл бұрын
One of the things that drove me crazy when making the transition to surface mount is the rather dismal tempco of common 1% SM resistors - typically ±100 ppm/K. I was used to 50 ppm with the Philips leaded resistors I generally used. If you want decent tempco in SM resitors you're into 0.1% or better tolerance (which I often did want along with low tempco). Carbon comp _are_ low inductance but they also tend to have relatively high capacitance, so you lose on one hand what you gain on the other. They are a lot more tolerant of transient overload than film types. Their excess noise (i.e. beyond Johnson noise) can be a problem. The reality is that resistors demand careful attention when you are doing demanding work. I ran across another resistor video a while back, talking specifically about 1% leaded resistors available on ebay. One commenter insisted that you should be able to make your circuits work with 10% tolerance parts. Sigh!

@@d614gakadoug9 What was the context of that other comment? Current limiting for an LED? Pull up or pull down resistors? Biasing a transistor or valve? With very few exceptions (usually frequency-dependent or high resolution current sensing, and you're likely to know _when_ you need the tighter tolerances), it's good practice to design for 10% tolerance and specify 1% resistors and 5% capacitors. The common examples listed above typically work just fine even is a resistor is 20% out.

I think it's worth mentioning that the potentiometer type designation with letters in 15:18 varies depending on the country and manufacturer. For example, in Europe, "A" means linear and "B" means logarithmic. Additionally, except to these two types, there is another non-linear one, which is inverse to logarithmic and in Europe is marked with the letter "C".

Regarding the multiplier, it is easier to use the same colour codes as the main digits. For example Orange Orange Brown is 3, 3, 1. So, 33 and ONE Zero = 330 ohms. Orange Orange Black is 3, 3, and ZERO Zeros = 33 ohms. This is much easier than using a "multipler" since you don't need to look up the chart to find a multiplier, then use math to multiply anything... instead just add however many zeros is applicable. The exception is lower value with Silver and Gold multipliers, where the chart is needed.

While this is correct, I have to say that the multiplier in the lookup table just means "times ten to the power of n", where n is the multiplier number. From ◼️ black or "0", with ×10⁰ up to ⬜️ white or "9" with ×10⁹. With the special cases of 🟨 gold with ×10⁻¹ and ⬜️ silver with ×10⁻² Of course in the decimal system that just corresponds to the number of digits you shift the decimal point. That's the point why they've chosen these numbers anyways. Tipp: If you have difficulties to memorise which way around the gold and silver one are: think of medals. Gold is 1st place, so "1" or "×10⁻¹". Silver is 2nd, so "2" or "×10⁻²".

Yeah sure. I do it the same way. But Gold and Silver multiplier aren't that hard either if you know how they're made up. To be fair though they aren't that common.

I find it easier to think of the multiplier as "the number of zeros after it." If you think about it, that's what it is in both band code and normal surface mount code.
