Frequently asked questions
What are the colour bands for this value?
Red, violet and red are the first three bands, giving 27 x 100 = 2.7 kΩ. A tolerance band follows. Confirm the code with a colour-code chart before soldering.
Is 0.25 W enough for my circuit?
For low-power signal and bias circuits, yes. Calculate the dissipation with P = V²/R or P = I²×R and keep it well below 0.25 W. Use a higher-wattage resistor for larger loads.
