Ohm Bands

412 Ω resistor colour code

Five bands: Yellow · Brown · Red · Black · 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.

A brown band allows this much drift.

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.

The same value, marked differently

Surface mount

411· three-digit, nearest only

4120· four-digit, precision parts

60C· EIA-96, for the smallest parts

Three digits carry two significant figures, so they cannot write 412 Ω — 411 means 410 Ω. A part at this value is marked 4120.

430 Ω is the nearest four-band value — +4.4% off.

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 412 Ω — which is why measuring beats reading when it matters.

If you do not have one

Standard values that land within 1% of 412 Ω when combined.
