Resistor Color Code Secrets

Written By:  on February 1, 2010 No Comment

Understanding color code is very important when you calculate the values of a certain resistance to. Any resistance Color is a number where you could have the following code to help you find the standard value. The resistance given coding serve as a resistance machine and with examples, would you not very long in order to understand it.

0 = black 1 = brown 2 = red 3 = orange, 4 = yellow 5 = green 6 = blue, 7 = violet, 8 = Gray, 9 = white, gold = 5% andSilver = 10%

Red, red, orange, gold = multiply 22 by 1 to (like orange three zeros), so you get 22 out of 1000 = 22000 ohms or 22 kilo ohms multiplied by a tolerance of + / -5% (Gold).

Blue, gray, brown, gold = 68 1 (multiply brown like a zero), then you get 68 out of 10 = 680 ohms with a tolerance of + / - 5% increase.

Brown, black, yellow, gold = 10 of 1 (equal to four multiplied yellow zero), then you will receive 10 of 10000 = 100000 ohms or 100 ohms multiplied by pounds with a tolerance+ / -5%.

Multiply yellow, purple, gold, gold = 47 to 0.1 (gold in the third volume), 4.7 ohms, so that you do with a tolerance of + / -5%

Orange, orange, silver, gold = 33 with 0.01 (silver multiply in the third volume), so that you will receive 0,33 Ohm with a tolerance of + / -5% respectively.

In the field of electronic repair, most of the time came I into five band color code. The purpose of the use of the five color band in a circuit is that there is a more accurate value compared to the four color band is available. For example, inTo get the value of 22.6KOHM, with four colors band you will not be able to find him. Most of you can be 22 (red, red, orange and gold).

If with the five color band you can calculate it (red, red, blue, red, brown) the last color brown is represented, the 1% tolerance. If you mean an analog multimeter open whatIi understand. Most of the resistance wires inside the multimeter are five streaks. Why? Since reading that youwhenever you measure current, voltage or ohms, the panel will show the nearest value. For example, if you measure a 9V battery, the needle points to be 8.9v, 9V, or 9.1 volts. When the meter has been developed that may in particular with four colors band the result that it acquires, 8.5 V, 9.5 V or even 10 volts. In other words, the use of five color band is to specify a circuit and the desire result as that, what the engineers want it to be displayed.

You are aWire resistance, there are numbers printed on the resistance and each encoding represents a resistance value. Following are the formulas that you can use to find out the exact values: R82 is, 82 ohm, 15R2 is 15.2 ohms, 100R is 100 ohms, 10K, 10 kilo-ohm, 2K7 is 2.7 pounds-is Ohm and 2M2 is 2.2 mega-ohms. Hope you find this article useful color code and is able to calculate value in the shortest time.
