Color ring resistor (also known as coding resistor or resistor) is an electronic component with colored rings used to represent the value of resistance. It usually consists of a slender resistor and several colored rings. Each colored ring represents a number or a multiplication factor, and by reading the color of these colored rings, the DMMT3906W-7-F resistance of the resistor can be determined.diode
Generally speaking, there are four or five colored rings in a color ring resistor, each representing a numerical value or a multiplication factor. The order of these colored bands is from left to right, usually starting from a metal band. The following are the color bands and corresponding values of common color ring resistors:
The first ring is the first digit, representing the highest resistance value.diode
2. The second ring represents the second digit, indicating the second highest resistance value.
3. The third ring is the multiplication factor, representing the order of magnitude of the resistance value.
The fourth ring represents the tolerance value, indicating the allowable error range of the resistance value. Sometimes there is also a fifth ring, which represents the temperature coefficient.diode
