Theoretical Exercise – Reading resistance values.

• Using the colour coding table provided in you theory notes, read the value of the following
resistors and state the range of value expected according to the tolerance

Example:

Value: 21400000 Ω (21.4 MΩ)

Brown
Yellow
Green

Silver
Red

Tolerance: +/- 10%

Value Range: 19260000 to 23540000 Ω (19.26 to 23.54 MΩ)
