Resistor layout

Hi All,

is there any advange in outting 2 parallel resistor insted of single resistor?

Thanks
 

Re: Resistor layout

If you have the resistance max power of 0.25W, substituting by 2 in parallel of the same max power will give you the ability of doubling the possible output power if it were limited by this resistance
