Res Code

The document describes the color code system used to identify resistor values and tolerances. It shows the band patterns for both 4-band and 5-band resistors, with the first 3 or 4 bands indicating the resistance value and the last band indicating the tolerance. For example, for a 5-band resistor with bands of brown, black, orange, gold, the value is 100K with a tolerance of +/-5%.
