115 kΩ resistor colour code
Five bands: Brown · Brown · Green · Orange · Brown. The first three give the digits — a precision value needs all three — then the multiplier, then how far off the real part may be.
Nominal
115 kΩ
115,000 ohms
Real range at ±1%
113.85 kΩ – 116.15 kΩ
A brown band allows this much drift.
Series
E96
A 1% precision value. Five bands, not four.
Band by band
| Band | Colour | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Brown | 1st digit — 1 |
| 2 | Brown | 2nd digit — 1 |
| 3 | Green | 3rd digit — 5 |
| 4 | Orange | Multiplier — ×1k |
| 5 | Brown | Tolerance — ±1% |
How much it can take
Current and dissipation across the resistor, and the package you need. The suggested rating keeps a factor of two in hand, which is what anyone building a board actually does.
| Across it | Current | Dissipated | Package to pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.3 V | 28.7 µA | 94.7 µW | 1/8 W |
| 5 V | 43.5 µA | 217 µW | 1/8 W |
| 12 V | 104 µA | 1.25 mW | 1/8 W |
| 24 V | 209 µA | 5.01 mW | 1/8 W |

The same value, marked differently
Values that can overlap this one
At ±1% the tolerance bands of neighbouring values run into each other. A part sold as one of these could measure the same as a 115 kΩ — which is why measuring beats reading when it matters.
If you do not have one
Standard values that land within 1% of 115 kΩ when combined.
