A 2.26 kΩ, 1%-precision resistor with 5 color bands (), from top, 2-2-6-1-1; the last two brown bands indicate the multiplier (×10) and the tolerance (1%).. An electronic color code or electronic colour code (see spelling differences) is used to indicate the values or ratings of electronic components, usually for resistors, but also for capacitors, inductors, diodes and others.
For capacitances following the (E3, E6, E12 or) E24 series of preferred values, the former ANSI/EIA-198-D:1991, ANSI/EIA-198-1-E:1998 and ANSI/EIA-198-1-F:2002 as well as the amendment IEC 60062:2016/AMD1:2019 to IEC 60062 define a special two-character marking code for capacitors for very small parts which leave no room to print any longer ...
The following historical mnemonics are generally considered offensive/outdated and should not be used in current electronics training: Bad boys rape our young girls but Violet gives willingly.
Electronic color code – color-code used to indicate the values of axial electronic components, such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes (also see IEC 60062) Geometric progression; Preferred number; Renard series – used for current rating of electric fuses
The metric codes still represent the dimensions in mm, even though the imperial size codes are no longer aligned. Problematically, some manufacturers are developing metric 0201 components with dimensions of 0.25 mm × 0.125 mm (0.0098 in × 0.0049 in), [ 31 ] but the imperial 01005 name is already being used for the 0.4 mm × 0.2 mm (0.0157 in ...
For instance, an "NP0" capacitor with EIA code "C0G" will have 0 drift, with a tolerance of ±30 ppm/K, while an "N1500" with the code "P3K" will have −1500 ppm/K drift, with a maximum tolerance of ±250 ppm/K. Note that the IEC and EIA capacitor codes are industry capacitor codes and not the same as military capacitor codes. Class 1 ...
Surface-mount capacitor A MOSFET, placed upon a British postage stamp for size comparison. Surface-mount technology ( SMT ), originally called planar mounting , [ 1 ] is a method in which the electrical components are mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). [ 2 ]
A reference designator unambiguously identifies the location of a component within an electrical schematic or on a printed circuit board.The reference designator usually consists of one or two letters followed by a number, e.g. C3, D1, R4, U15.
