How to identify information from resistor color code

Resistors are a highly necessary electronic component in any circuit board. Indeed, this component is used a huge amount among other electronic parts. Various types and values of resistors are available in the market. But the price, as well as size, is very low compared to other types of electronic components. Therefore, it is not possible to display details information on the body surface. In this case, an internationally approved color band is used on the resistor body surface. So that users can easily identify the general information about that specific electronic component. Resistor color code can provide necessary information to any user. If somehow this component is damaged inside any circuit board, it can be simply identified by color code and replaced by another new one. For this reason, all manufacturing companies, such as Synton tech corporation, maintain standard color codes during the production process. This maintenance method is definitely very simple due to the color code. Basically, resistor can control current flow in any dc circuit. The capacity of resistor is defined by SI unit ohms. Moreover, as per capacity of resistor is used also kilo ohms or mega ohms.

Example of resistor color band: one of the resistor surfaces has color band orientation like this – RED BLUE BROWN RED (3band + extra one). So as per the chart value will be 2 6 X 10 = 260 ohms and tolerance 2%. Tolerance may positive or negative. That means can be expressed as +- 2 %.
