SMD code 46D — 2.94 kΩ

A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is an EIA-96 marking: code 46 is 2.94 in the E96 series, D multiplies by 1000. Parts marked this way are usually ±1%.

Same value, other markings

2.94 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 46D. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
