What is the function of the tolerance band on a fixed resistor
Answers
Answer:
Some projects require your measurements to be more precise than others, and for this reason the tolerance band is useful in identifying which resistor will give you a more accurate resistance reading. The smaller the tolerance percentage is, the higher the precision in your measurements.
Answer:
Tolerance Band
The fourth color band indicates the resistor's tolerance. Tolerance is the percentage of error in the resistor's resistance, or how much more or less you can expect a resistor's actual measured resistance to be from its stated resistance. A gold tolerance band is 5% tolerance, silver is 10%, and no band at all would mean a 20% tolerance.
For example:
1)A 220 Ω resistor has a silver tolerance band.
2)Tolerance = value of resistor x value of tolerance band = 220 Ω x 10% = 22 Ω
3)220 Ω stated resistance +/- 22 Ω tolerance means that the resistor could range in actual value from as much as 242 Ω to as little as 198 Ω.
