Explanation of standard resistor values, preferred resistor values and E-series numbers assigned for colour coded resistors. Standard Resistor Values Fixed resistors come in a variety of types, sizes and resistance values. But to have a resistor available for every possible resistance value calculated, literally millions of individual resistors would need to exist. Clearly this is…

6-Band Resistor Colour Code Calculator This 6-band resistor colour code calculator allows you to calculate the resistance value of fixed value 6-band resistors using the coloured bands on their body. The 6-band resistors are high precision resistors which have an additional (6th) coloured band to specify their temperature coefficient in parts per million per 1oC change in…
