minus-squareAdalast@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 month agoI thought it had to do with physicists working off theoretical calculations finding precise values for the circuit and not realizing that components come in discrete values.
minus-squareanomnom@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 month agoYeah, but they could just calculate the right mix of parallel and series discrete resistors to get there. It’s gonna make a long BOM though.
