Ohm Bands

SMD code 83B — 71.5 Ω

A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is an EIA-96 marking: code 83 is 7.15 in the E96 series, B multiplies by 10. Parts marked this way are usually ±1%.

Codes you will mistake it for

One character apart from 83B. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
