Ohm Bands

SMD code 182 — 1.8 kΩ

A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is a three-digit marking: 18 × 10². Parts marked this way are usually ±5% or ±2%.

1.8 kΩ

The same part, in bands

The through-hole version of 1.8 kΩ carries 4 colour bands instead.

Everything about 1.8 kΩ — power ratings, what ten cost, what is in stock.

Same value, other markings

1.8 kΩ 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 182. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
