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 ...

Resistor Color Code Calculator This web application helps you determine the resistance and tolerance of a resistor based on its color bands.

As explained by Arduino to Go, each color band on the resistor corresponds to a number but this can differ depending on the band's placement. It's not complicated, but the sheer number of colors ...

Resistor color code human interest story 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 ...
