Review: What is a Resistor?
Resistors  circuit component that resist (limits)
the flow of electrons in an electrical circuit.

Resistor Color Codes
 Resistors have their resistance value and tolerance shown by
colored bands.
 Read the resistor bands from the left-hand side.
 1st band is the one closest to one of the ends.
 4th band will have either gold, silver, or no color.

Resistor Color Codes
 1st band = 1st significant digit
 2nd band = 2nd significant digit
 3rd band = multiplier
 4th band = tolerance

Resistor Color Codes
Question: Why do we use color
coding in a resistor?
Ans.: For easier identification.
Saudi Aramco: Company General Use
Resistor Color Codes
1st band: orange 3
2nd band: white 9
3rd band: yellow 10,000
4th band: silver +/- 10%
Therefore:
39 x 10,000 = 39,000
39 kilo ohms +/- 10%
1st band: red 2
2nd band: green 5
3rd band: black 1
4th band: silver +/- 10%
Therefore:
25 x 1 = 39,000
25 ohms +/- 10%

Tolerance
From the resistor value:
39 k +/- 10%
The tolerance limits the
resistance to:
Minimum value:
39 k - 10% = 35.1 k
Maximum value:
39 k + 10% = 42.9 k
From the resistor value:
25  +/- 10%
The tolerance limits the
resistance to:
Minimum value:
25  - 10% = 22.5 
Maximum value:
25  + 10% = 27.5

Tolerance
Question: Why does a resistor
have tolerance?
Ans.:
There is no perfect resistor with
an exact value.
Resistors are manufactured in
approximate values.

Review & Conclusion
Review
 Calculate the resistance of the sample
resistors.
Conclusion
 You can calculate the resistance in a
resistor just by using the color bands.
