In this post I will comprehensively explain regarding the various standard resistor color codes, and systems employed for assigning resistors their specific values. The post also explains how to read and identify resistor values from their color codes. By: S. Prakash The color codes used in resistors denote a leaded resistor’s value. These color codes […]

How Flex Resistors Work and how to Interface it with Arduino for Practical Implementation
As electronics enthusiasts we may come across many kinds of resistors, from small fixed resistor to high current bulk rheostat. There are humongous classifications among resistors, but here we will focus on a particular kind of resistor called “flex resistor” and learn how it works. As the name signifies a flex resistor is flexible and […]
How to Use Resistors with LED, Zener and Transistor
In this post I have explained how to use resistors while designing an electronic circuits using LEDs, zener diodes, or transistors. This article can be very useful for the new hobbyists who normally get confused with the resistor values to be used for a specific component and for the desired application. What is a Resistor […]
