2,2K ohm or 2k ohm? Simple question.

In a traditional/original receiver circuit. (LM555 timer as oscilator, calibrating a LED)... there should be a 2K ohm resistor. But my lab only have 2,2K ohm resistors. Is it still going to work?

You can use 2.2k instead of 2k. If that determines the frequency (which I guess it does not..)then frequency can decrease by 10%. If it is in series with an LED (which I guess it is..) then brightness comesdown by an unnoticeable amount.

If you can pile up 11 of them, you could use 10 in series to make 22k and then put that in parallel with one of them to make a nice 2k resistor out of them. The LM555 isn't usually used as a precision oscillator using precision parts, so it's probably fine that you use a 2.2k, though.

it's a difference of only 200Ω. a resistor with 5% tolerance will vary by about 100Ω for a 2kΩ resistor.

in most cases, it should work.

Other answers are good.

If you're concerned about frequency of oscillation, remember that the value- and tolerance- of the capacitor in the circuit affects the frequency too.
