Ohm Bands

SMD code 20F — 158 kΩ

A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is an EIA-96 marking: code 20 is 1.58 in the E96 series, F multiplies by 100000. Parts marked this way are usually ±1%.

Everything about 158 kΩ — power ratings, what ten cost, what is in stock.

Same value, other markings

158 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 20F. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
