Ohm Bands

SMD code 6R00 — 6 Ω

A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is a four-digit marking: the R is the decimal point — 6.00 Ω. Parts marked this way are usually ±1% or tighter.

6R00

reads as

6 Ω

Same value, other markings

6 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 6R00. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
