Multimeter - What is the value represented by the color on the color ring resistor

 

The color comparison table of color ring resistors is as follows:


The color ring resistance identification method means that four color rings or five color rings or six color rings are used on the resistor to indicate the resistance value. The color information representing the resistance value can be read from any angle at one time.


Color ring resistors are the most common type of resistors used in various electronic devices. No matter how they are installed, maintenance personnel can easily read their resistance values for detection and replacement.


The meanings of each color ring are as follows:


The first color circle: the first digit of the resistance value; the second color circle: the second digit of the resistance value; the third color circle: the power of 10; the fourth color circle: the error representation.


For example: resistance color ring: brown green red gold, the first digit: 1; the second digit: 5; the third digit: the power of 10 is 2 (ie 100); the error is 5%; the resistance is: 15×100= 1500 ohms = 1.5 thousand ohms = 1.5K


There is also a "five-color ring" resistor with higher accuracy. Five color rings are used to indicate the resistance value of the resistor, as follows:


The first color ring: the first digit of the resistance value; the second color ring: the second digit of the resistance value; the third color ring: the third digit of the resistance value; the fourth color ring: the resistance value The power of 10 of the multiplier; the fifth color ring: error (commonly brown, the error is 1%)


What are the numbers corresponding to each color of the color ring resistor


①. The numbers corresponding to the colors of the above color ring resistors are: 1 means brown, 2 means red, 3 means orange, 4 means yellow, 5 means green, 6 means blue, 7 means purple, 8 means gray, 9 means White, 10 means black (ie O). for reference only!


Five-color ring resistor identification resistance value of electronic components
The color of this resistor is brown (1) blue (6) black (0) brown (1) brown (1). Its resistance is 1.6KΩ±1%.
