A: the first digit
The first band, brown, indicates the digit 1.The second band, red, indicates the digit 2.The third band indicates the multiplier. For yellow, this is 10000.12x10000 = 120,000 ohms.The last band is an indication of the tolerance of the resistor; gold means the actual value is within 5% of the stated value.
The colored bands on a resistor represent the resistor value and tolerance. The first two bands indicate the significant digits of the resistance value, the third band represents the multiplier, and the fourth band (if present) indicates the tolerance of the resistor. By decoding these colors, you can determine the resistance value of the resistor.
The first 3 band on a resistor indicate the value of that resistor.
To determine the resistance value of a resistor using its colored bands, first identify the colors of the first two bands, which represent the first and second significant digits. The third band indicates the multiplier (the power of ten by which to multiply the combined digits). For example, if the first two bands are red (2) and green (5), and the third band is brown (10^1), the resistance would be 25 x 10 = 250 ohms. If there is a fourth band, it usually indicates tolerance.
Hi You can find the value of the resistor by using colour code printed on the resistor. 1. Hold the resistor such that the colour code starts from left. 2. Each of the colour bands present on the resistor specifies a value. 3. The first colour band represents the first significant figure, the second band represents the second significant figure and the third band indicates the multiplier. The fourth band represents the tolerance. Gold band- 5%, Silver band-10%, No band-20% 4.Find the appropriate values for the colour by using the chart 1. 5. Find the value of the resistor by using the formula 1. Chart1 Example: Here first band represent brown. Second band represent black. Third band represent red . Fourth band represent gold. The value of resistor = 10 x 102 ± 5% = 1kΩ ± 5%
When a resistor has a 4th color band, its color is either gold or silver, so I will assume the color bands are white-white-white-gold. The resistance is 99 GΩ ± 5%.
The answer is 5, the question originates from CDX
A: Not all application need close tolerance of values some application only need 5% and some 10% so the band is there to specify the -/+ % tolerance that the part is in compliance with. Designers decide what parts % is needed for proper performance of the circuit.
They are color coded lines (or Bands) that are usually broken down into 2 parts. the first part of the bands are to establish the amount of resistance the resistor is constructed, by design, to perform in a circuit. The second part (which is the usally the last line or band) extablishes the amout of tolarance the designed resistor has. tolorance bands are always silver or gold if they are there but there is a provision where you may not see a tolorance band. There are plenty of electronis sites that can break down the color codes for you. but they are based on a X10, X100, X1000... mutipliers depending on which position the band is located in ie. first, second, third and so on... and for how many there are.
The first three bands on a resistor tell you what its resistance is. The first band is the first digit, the second band is the second digit, and the third band is the number of zeros to add. Use the resistor color code to convert... 0 Black 1 Brown 2 Red 3 Orange 4 Yellow 5 Green 6 Blue 7 Violet 8 Grey 9 White As an example, a 27000 ohm resistor would be Red - Violet - Orange. If the third band is Silver, the multiplier is 0.1 and, if the third band is Gold, the multiplier is 0.01. For example, a 0.39 ohm resistor would be Orange - Gray - Gold.
yep
yes
