Appendix G
Standard Values of Resistors, Capacitors, and Inductors

G.1 Color Code of Resistors

Except for wire‐wound/cermet/high‐power/precision resistors, most common resistors do not have their resistance value printed on them, but rather have a color code representing their resistance value as illustrated in Figure G.1. Table G.1 shows the numerical value or tolerance (manufacturer’s reliability rating) represented by each color. For example, the resistance value of a resistor with the four‐color band of yellow‐violet‐red‐silver is

(G.1)equation

and that of a resistor with the five‐color band of orange–black–white–gold–gold is

(G.2)equation

G.2 Standard Values of Resistors

Discrete resistors are commercially available only in standard values depending on their tolerance as listed in Table G.2. Consequently, when the designed value of a resistor is 3.1 kΩ, we should use 30×102 ± 5%[Ω] or 309×101 ± 1%[Ω] unless we somehow have a resistor of 3.1 kΩ fabricated.

  • (cf.) The commercially available resistors have the power (wattage) ratings of 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, and 2W depending on their physical sizes.
  • (cf.) Some resistors may exhibit parasitic effects of series inductance and parallel capacitance especially if the circuit containing them operates at very high frequency.

G.3 Standard Values of Capacitors

Discrete capacitors are commercially available only in standard values depending on their physical material/shape as listed in Tables G.3.1 and G.3.2. Table G.3.3 shows the letter tolerance code of capacitors. Most of them have their value (like 22 μF) printed on their body together with their breakdown voltage, while the capacitance value of ceramic condenser is printed as, say, 104, which means the capacity of

If the tolerance is missing, it can be assumed to be ±20%. Note that electrolytic capacitors have positive/negative terminals with the positive one having longer leg, and if we are not careful to connect them in accord with the polarity they will leak or may be destroyed.

  • (cf.) The commercially available capacitors have the working voltages of about 3∼1000 V.
  • (cf.) Some capacitors may exhibit parasitic effects of parallel/series resistance and series inductance.

G.4 Standard Values of Inductors

Discrete inductors are commercially available only in standard values (with the tolerance of ±5%, ±10%, and ±20%) listed in Table G.4.

For the desired values of the resistances, capacitances, and inductances, the standard values can easily be chosen from Tables G.2, G.3.1, G.3.2, and G.4 by using the following MATLAB routine ‘standard_value(val,RLC,glc,tol)’ where the input arguments are supposed to be given as follows:

  • val: the desired value of a resistance, a capacitance, or an inductance;
  • RLC: ‘R’, ‘C’, or ‘L’ for resistance, a capacitance, or an inductance;
  • glc: ‘g’, ‘l’, or ‘c’ to look for the standard value slightly greater than, less than, or just close to the desired value; and
  • tol: 1, 5, or 10 for 1%‐/5%‐/10%‐tolerance standard resistance value.
