5. Electric versus Electronic What is the difference? An electronic circuit contains at least one transistor or tube. Devices which contain electronic circuits (TVs, radios, iPods) are electronic. Electric motors are never electronic because they do not contain transistors or tubes.

19. How to Use the Color Chart for Resistors 1. Position the resistor so that the tolerance band is on the right. There is a large space between the tolerance band and the other bands. In some cases, there may not be a tolerance band. You should still make sure that this side of the resistor is on the right. © 2014 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Advanced Design Applications

20. Using the Resistor Color Chart 2. Identify the first band and look it up in the resistor color code chart (1st BAND column). Write down the number associated with that color. 3. Now read in order, from left to right, the second color band. Look it up in the resistor color code chart (2nd BAND column). Write down the number associated with that color. © 2014 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Advanced Design Applications

21. Using the Resistor Color Chart continued 4. Read the third resistor color band, which corresponds to the 3rd BAND column in the chart. Write down the value found. 5. The fourth color band is the multiplier. Again, look that color up in the resistor color coding chart and multiply the value written so far with the one from the resistor color chart in the multiplier column. © 2014 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Advanced Design Applications

22. Using the Resistor Color Chart continued 6. The last resistor color band corresponds to the tolerance. Simply look up the color printed on the resistor for the tolerance band in the resistor color code chart and write it down. © 2014 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Advanced Design Applications

23. Using the Resistor Color Chart Special Notes If the resistor has one more band past the tolerance band it is a quality band. Read the corresponding color number from the 1st BAND column. It is specified as the “% Failure rate per 1000 hour.” This is rated assuming full wattage being applied to the resistors. To improve the failure rates resistors are typically required having twice the needed wattage dissipation that the circuit they are used in produces. © 2014 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Advanced Design Applications

24. Using the Resistor Color Chart Special Notes In some cases, there may be four color bands, including the tolerance band. In this case, the third band is the multiplier band. When the multiplier band is gold, the resistor value is between 1 and 10 ohms. Use a multiplication factor of 0.1 to the first two digits. © 2014 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Advanced Design Applications

25. Using the Resistor Color Chart Special Notes When the multiplier band is silver, the resistor value is less than 1 ohm. Use a multiplication factor of 0.01 to the first two digits. Resistors of 5, 10, and 20% tolerance are typically made from carbon. These types of resistors are basically used to limit current flow in a circuit. © 2014 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association STEM  Center for Teaching and Learning™ Advanced Design Applications
