Ohm Bands

SMD code 05X — 0.11 Ω

A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is an EIA-96 marking: code 5 is 1.1 in the E96 series, X multiplies by 0.1. Parts marked this way are usually ±1%.

0.11 Ω

The same part, in bands

The through-hole version of 0.11 Ω carries 4 colour bands instead.

Everything about 0.11 Ω — power ratings, what ten cost, what is in stock.

Same value, other markings

0.11 Ω is printed several ways depending on the part's precision and size. A board can carry all of them at once.

Codes you will mistake it for

One character apart from 05X. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
