4 band resistor color code
In the example shown here, the 4 bands are green, blue, red and gold. The 4 color band resistor color code red-yellow-yellow-red stands for 240 k +/-2, in words: two hundred and fourty Kiloohms with plus/minus two percent.
These resistors have two bands for the resistance value, one multiplier and one tolerance band. This is a simple online calculator for color band resistor marking, inductor color band marking,Ĭeramic or tantalum capacitor 3 digit marking and SMD resistor 3-digit, 4-digit, 10%, 5%, 2% and EIA-96 (E96) 1% tolerance code marking. The four band color code is the most common variation. The 4 color band resistor color code red-yellow-yellow-red stands for 240 kΩ +/-2%, in words: two hundred and fourty Kiloohms with plus/minus two percent tolerance. Visit our resistor value calculator to calculate the value of your 4-band or 5-band. Tolerance of the resistor is also an important property to consider.A 100 resistor with 10. The fifth bands is used to determine the percentage tolerance of the resistor.
