3-DIGIT VALUE CODE + 5% Tolerance
Resistors are measured in ohms. The symbol for ohms is . You may also see
the value of a resistor expressed as K ohms or M ohms. K stands for Kiloohms or one thousand ohms, and M stands for Meg-ohms or one million ohms.
Therefore: a 10,000 ohm resistor can be abbreviated as 10K for 10 Kilo-ohms.
In the same manner a 6,000,000 ohm resistor can be abbreviated as 6M, for 6
Meg-ohms.
Equivalents: 1,000,000 ohms = 1,000K-ohms = 1M-oh

Resistors are measured in ohms. The symbol for ohms is . You may also see
the value of a resistor expressed as K ohms or M ohms. K stands for Kiloohms or one thousand ohms, and M stands for Meg-ohms or one million ohms.
Therefore: a 100,000 ohm resistor can be abbreviated as 100K for 100 Kiloohms. In the same manner a 6,000,000 ohm resistor can be abbreviated as 6M,
for 6 Meg-ohms.
Equivalents: 1,000,000 ohms = 1,000K-ohms = 1M-ohm.

When the letter R is used as part of a 3- or 4-digit number code, it indicates the position
of a decimal point. For example, a 3-digit code of 4R3 would be decoded as 4.3 . If
the code is R43, the value would be .43 . And a 4-digit number code of 65R5 would
be decoded as 65.5 . When a letter code is used to indicate a decimal point, there is
no multiplier.

29.5K + 1%
The letter K also indicates the position of a decimal point in 3- and 4-digit number
codes. The difference is that the value will be measured in kilo-ohms. For example,
8K9 would be 8.9K . When a letter code is used to indicate a decimal point, there is
no multiplier.
1.5M + 5%
20m + 1%
Decimal points can also be indicated by the letters M and L. M is used when the value
is measured in meg-ohms and L is used when the value will be measured in milli-ohms.
When a letter code is used to indicate a decimal point, there is no multiplier.

Some number codes use the colon symbol, or two small boxes to represent the number
8. For example, the 3-character code:53 equals 853. The two value numbers are 85.
The multiplier is 3 so three zeros added after 85 gives the value 85,000 , or 85K .
As long as there is no letter indicating a decimal point, 3- and 4-character codes
containing a colon symbol are calculated the same as 3- and 4-digit number codes.

Resistors are measured in ohms. The symbol for ohms is . You may also see
the value of a resistor expressed as K ohms or M ohms. K stands for Kiloohms or one thousand ohms, and M stands for Meg-ohms or one million ohms.
Therefore: a 100,000 ohm resistor can be abbreviated as 100K for 100 Kiloohms. In the same manner a 6,000,000 ohm resistor can be abbreviated as 6M,
for 6 Meg-ohms.
These axial resistors typically have a single letter code to the right of the number
code to indicate tolerance.
Equivalents: 1,000,000 ohms = 1,000K-ohms = 1M-ohm.

Capacitors are measured in farads. There are picofarads (pF), nanofarads
(nF), and microfarads (F). Unless otherwise indicated, the default tolerance is
+ 20%.
On capacitors, or N is used to indicate the position of a decimal point. A
symbol means the measurement is calculated in microfarads. The letter N
means the measurement will be in nanofarads. For example, the code 9N5
would be decoded to 9.5nF + 20%.
Equivalents: 1,000,000pF (picofarads) = 1,000nF (nanofarads) = 1F
