Some people look at a venerable resource like resistor color code charts and see something tried and true, but to [Andrew Jeddeloh], there’s room for improvement. A search for a more intuitive way is ...
The values or ratings of electronic components are indicated by the electronic color code that was developed in the early 1920s. It is not only seen in resistors, but also in capacitors, inductors, ...
One of the first things you learn in electronics is how to identify a resistor’s value. Through-hole resistors have color codes, and that’s generally where beginners begin. But why are they marked ...
I once worked with an engineer that often checked his resistors with a multimeter before use. I just assumed that he was just being careful (certainly more careful than I…). Then one day, he asked me ...
The colored bands on a resistor can tell you everything you need to know about its value and tolerance, as long as you understand how to read them. The order in which the colors are arranged is very ...
Resistor Color Code Utility Overview This is a simple C# console application that helps you determine the color codes of resistors based on standard resistor color-coding schemes. It allows users to ...
Electronics enthusiasts spend a lot of time just looking for all sorts of data: resistor colour codes, schematics for various applications, connector pinouts or perhaps a description of DIY circuit ...
