Is it possible to stack SMD resistors in parallel to reduce power dissipation per resistor?

Published on 12/30/2016 4:40:33 PM

Description

There is a resistor on the PCB of about 70ohm. So the&nbsp;<br /> resistor would be dissipating 350mW of power. &nbsp;&nbsp;<br /> The SMD resistor package is 0805. But the problem is that the dissipates max resistor I fond is 125mW in this package.&nbsp;<br /> &nbsp;<br /> So can I get 3 220ohm versions of this resistor and literally stack them in parallel?&nbsp;<br /> &nbsp;<br />
