The maximum rated power of the $LED$ is $2 \text{ mW}$ and it is used in the circuit with an input voltage of $5 \text{ V}$ as shown in the figure. The Zener diode has a breakdown voltage of $1 \text{ V}$. The current through the resistance $R = 1 \text{ k}\Omega$ is $0.5 \text{ mA}$. The minimum value of the resistance $R_S$ to ensure that the $LED$ is not damaged is . . . . . . $\text{k}\Omega$.
