Can I tent/combine any of these values to make 750R?

[EisengesisFX]

The ONE component I forgot to order for this Dung Beetle build is a 750R resistor. I know with tenting resistors, you can get within ballpark range of the desired value even if it's not the EXACT number. Can I do that sort of thing with any of the values I have on hand, listed here?

270Ω + 470Ω gets you to 740Ω

In that spot in the circuit the value isn't super critical though, anything in the ballpark should be fine though, either 680Ω or 820Ω should work without issue.

Lmao I didn't major in math

Thank you!

680 and 68 gives 748 if you want real close...

ChatGPT is great help for this.
Also, if you can get 1k5, two in parallel gives you exactly 750ohms

680Ω or 820Ω

*Counts with toes....*

Need uncommon resistor values? This site suggests suitable combinations:

Graphic from another thread; Just sub in your values:
270Ω + 470Ω + 10Ω = 750Ω

Graphic from another thread; Just sub in your values:
270Ω + 470Ω + 10Ω = 750Ω

Ummm, not to be picky but that picture is only 477 ohms....

If I were you, I’d put 750 1r resistors inline and be golden. You know, just to be dead on. Also, I’d measure each one and verify they’re exactly 1 Ohm.

You’re welcome.

Oh, you don't have your reading-comprehension-101-glasses on, let me help...

Too funny

Kinda wishing I had done more than look at the picture....

When something similar happens to me, I always blame sleep deprivation — and in all too many cases, it's absolutely true.

Do you partake? Maybe tipple a little? Those are good for blame deflection, too.

those resistors aren't the only thing tenting at the thought of this

Here, I finally had a moment to update the Resistor-Bridge to be specific to EisengesisFX's quandary:




I put them in ascending order of value from left to right, I hope this is an acceptable format.







And for those who don't want to be locked into those values, and diagram to be used in future with alternate values if required,
here's a (to coin a term) ...
NON-DENUMERATIONAL RESISTOR-BRIDGE:







While we're at it, because the OP provided so many options (ie resistor values) to play with, let's muck around with parallel and series, too:






Many roads can lead to 750 Ohms.

And here's me thinking resistors were boring...

 

[JohnnyCreepy]

How about replacing 750r resistor with a 1K trim pot and setting the value by ear or eye/nose as components release their mojo when accidentally shorting something with a flathead screwdriver.

That's a 330K resistor.

Uh, yeah, that's it. Lack of sleep. No longer partake so can't use that one.

That's a 330K resistor.

A bit of salt for the wound? You guys are ruthless LOL

I'm just here wondering what my guy @Feral Feline needed a precisely 330147 Ohm resistor for.
