Most resistors have 4 bands:▪ The 1st band gives the

first digit.▪ The 2nd band gives the

second digit.▪ The 3rd band indicates

the number of zeros.▪ The 4th band gives the

tolerance

Components Coding:

Capacitor Coding: Capacitors are usually specified by three quantities: _______________________ _______________________ _______________________

A number code is often used on small capacitors where printing is difficult. The 1st number ______________________ The 2nd number ______________________ The 3rd number is _______________________

The code gives the capacitance in _________________ Remark: Ignore any letters - they just indicate tolerance

and voltage rating.
