10k Resistor Color Code

If your answer is yes, then this tool is specifically designed for you! Our Resistor Color Code Calculator is a handy tool for reading carbon-composition resistors whether it's a 4-band, 5-band or 6-band type. To use this tool, simply click on a particular color and number and watch how the actual bands on the resistor illustration change.

The tolerance band colours listed above appear to be incorrect, especially if you are in North America. Resistor colour codes usually follow the standard IEC 60062, and there are others (JIS C 0802, JSS 50401, etc.).

Resistor Color Code Calculator

4-band and 5-band resistors usually only use tolerances of Brown 1%, Red 2%, Gold 5%, or Silver 10%. 6-band resistors can include greater precision with tolerances of Green 0.5%, Blue 0.1%, or Violet 0.1%. Yellow and grey are typically avoided because they look like gold and silver, and in fact they are used to replace gold and silver on resistors that must not contain metallic paint. (Orange is not used for 3% and yellow is not used for 4%.). Sort By Type. (28). (16).

Ppm/°CHow to Use the Resistor Color Code CalculatorAre you having trouble reading resistor color codes? If your answer is yes, then this tool is specifically designed for you! Our Resistor Color Code Calculator is a handy tool for reading carbon-composition resistors whether it's a 4-band, 5-band or 6-band type.To use this tool, simply click on a particular color and number and watch how the actual bands on the resistor illustration change. The resistance value is displayed on the field below together with the tolerance and the temperature coefficient. Resistor Band ColorsAs shown above, a carbon-composition resistor can have 4 to 6 bands. A 5-band resistor is more precise compared to a 4-band type because of the inclusion of a third significant digit. A 6-band resistor is like a 5-band resistor but includes a temperature coefficient band (the 6th band).

The first two bands represent the significant digits, the third band is a multiplication factor, the fourth band is for tolerance and the fifth band is for the temperature coefficient (ppm/K).Deviating ColorsIn order to prevent metal and other particles from getting in the coating of high voltage resistors, the gold and silver bands are often replaced with a yellow and gray band. Single Black Band or Zero-Ohm ResistorA single black band on a resistor is called a zero-ohm resistor.

Basically, it is a wire link used to connect traces on a printed circuit board (PCB) that is packaged in the same physical package format as a resistor. This packaging allows the zero-ohm resistor to be placed on the circuit board using the same equipment typically used to place other resistors. Reliability BandWhen resistors are produced in accordance to military specifications, they will often include a band that indicates reliability. This band is specifically for failure rate percentage per 1000 hours of service. This band is almost never used in commercial electronics. Four band resistors typically use this reliability band.

For more information about this can be found in the US military handbook MIL-HDBK-199.Further Reading.
