Title: Small resistors?
Post by: clangmeister on November 22, 2011, 09:34:49 PM
I noticed on the part layouts there are some resistors that seem smaller than the normal 1/4 watters.
For instance on the Sunking board, resistors 1 - 7 are tiny compared to 8, 9...
If this seems like a a silly 'noob' question please forgive... but enlighten.

Thanks

I think those are 1/8 watt resistors, but you can just use 1/4 watt resistors. Called "stand-up resistors", they won't be flush with the board (typical with veroboard work), but that's fine--it's what I did  ;)

Great... thanks. Didn't want to buy all new resistors.  ;D
