SMD code 79D — 6.49 kΩ

A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is an EIA-96 marking: code 79 is 6.49 in the E96 series, D multiplies by 1000. Parts marked this way are usually ±1%.

Codes you will mistake it for

One character apart from 79D. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
