4 Band Resistor Color Code. Since this is a 4 band resistor the resistance color code wheel can be used to find the resistance value of a 5 band resistor so the third digital wheel is not used in this case. The 4 color bands on the left side are grouped together to represent the resistance value of a resistor and the 5 th color band on the right side indicates the tolerance of the resistor.

Select the number of bands then their colors to determine the value and tolerance of the resistors or view all resistors digi. As shown above a carbon composition resistor can have 4 to 6 bands. The resistor color code calculator identifies the value and tolerance of a color coded resistor given its bands colors.
Yellow violet red gold.
The resistance calculator has 1 to 6 band colors with multiplier mul and tolerance tol and ppm kelvin. Supports resistors with 3 4 5 and 6 bands. This tool is used to decode information for color banded axial lead resistors. The resistor calculator tool calculates the color code for 3band 4 band 5 band and 6 band resistors typically in the range of ohms kilo ohms and mega ohms.
