2-2: Resistor Color Coding
Five-Band Color Code
Precision resistors often use a
five-band code to obtain more
accurate R values.
The first three stripes indicate
the first 3 digits in the R value.
The fourth stripe is the
multiplier.
The tolerance is given by the
fifth stripe.

Brown = 1%
Red = 2%
Green = 0.5%
Blue = 0.25%
Violet = 0.1%.
