A 470-ohm resistor, often denoted as 470R, is an electrical component that impedes the flow of current in a circuit. Its primary function is to limit the amount of current that can pass through it, helping to protect sensitive components from excessive current. The "470" indicates its resistance value in ohms, and it is commonly used in various electronic applications, including voltage dividers and current limiting in LEDs.
