Here’s how this calculator Works lets finds.

1. First Band: Represents the first significant digit.
2. Second Band: Represents the second significant digit.
3. Third Band: Represents the third significant digit.
4. Fourth Band: Represents the multiplier.
5. Fifth Band: Represents the tolerance.

The color codes for the digits, multiplier, and tolerance are as follows:

• Black: 0, x10^0
• Brown: 1, x10^1, ±1%
• Red: 2, x10^2, ±2%
• Orange: 3, x10^3
• Yellow: 4, x10^4, ±4%
• Green: 5, x10^5, ±0.5%
• Blue: 6, x10^6, ±0.25%
• Violet: 7, x10^7, ±0.10%
• Gray: 8, x10^8, ±0.05%
• White: 9, x10^9
• Gold: x10^-1, ±5%
• Silver: x10^-2, ±10%123

Here is an Example A 5-band resistor with the colors brown, green, black, orange, and red can be decoded like this:

1. First Band (brown): 1st significant digit = 1
2. Second Band (green): 2nd significant digit = 5
3. Third Band (black): 3rd significant digit = 0
4. Fourth Band (orange): Multiplier = x10^3 (1k)
5. Fifth Band (red): Tolerance = ±2%
   So, the resistance will be: 150 * 1k = 150k Ohms with ±2% tolerance
