IDENTIFYING RESISTOR VALUES

Use the following information as a guide in properly identifying the value of resistors.

1. 1,000 pico units = 1 nano unit

2. 1,000 nano units = 1 micro unit

3. 1,000 micro units = 1 milli unit

4. 1,000 milli units = 1 unit

5. 1,000 units = 1 kilo unit

6. 1,000 kilo units = 1 mega unit

IDENTIFYING CAPACITOR VALUES

Capacitors will be identified by their capacitance value in pF (picofarads), nF (nanofarads), or μF (microfarads).

Most capacitors will have their actual value printed on them. Some capacitors may have their value printed in

the following manner. The maximum operating voltage may also be printed on the capacitor.

Note: The letter “R”

may be used at times

to signify a decimal

point; as in 3R3 = 3.3

103K

100V

The letter M indicates a tolerance of +20%

The letter K indicates a tolerance of +10%

The letter J indicates a tolerance of +5%

Maximum Working Voltage

The value is 10 x 1,000 =

10,000pF or .01μF 100V

Electrolytic capacitors have a positive

and a negative electrode. The negative

lead is indicated on the packaging by

a stripe with minus signs and possibly

arrowheads.

Warning:

If the capacitor

is connected

with incorrect

polarity, it may

heat up and

either leak, or

cause the

capacitor to

explode.
