In this post, you will learn what is a resistor? its symbols, selection of resistors, applications, and types of resistor are explained with diagrams. You can also download the PDF file at the end of this article.
There is a lot of information both online and on this Electronics Tutorials website too, to help you read and understand how resistor colour codes work and this free, simple to use and practical resistor colour code wheel will hopefully help you on your way.

Generally, resistors are too small in size for manufacturers to print numbers and letters on them to indicate their resistive value and tolerance. Luckily for us, some bright spark somewhere invented a resistor colour coding system to make our lives easier and help us to work it out with our free resistor colour code wheel. Fixed resistors have different coloured rings or bands around them to indicate their resistive value with each coloured band having a decimal value associated with it.
Using our simple and free resistor colour code wheel we can now make sense of all these different coloured bands and what they mean. But first things first. We need to download and print out the Resistor Colour Code Wheel template using the download button below. Its completely free!
However, being thin printing paper it can easily be torn or damaged with constant use. Then using a paper with a density of 150g/m2 or greater, or using thin card would be a better choice and more durable. It would also be possible to laminate the template sheet after printing to both strengthen and prolong its life, the choice is yours. Anyway once you have the resistor colour code wheel template downloaded to your hard drive, you can print it out as many times as you want.
Insert the paper fastener through each hole in turn, starting with the smallest disc and working upwards making sure that each disc is free to rotate as you assemble. Once complete bend the fasteners tabs over at the back of the larger disc. You should now have an assembled resistor colour code wheel that looks something like this.
So there you have it, a fun little project to do at home for use at school or the science lab, just download, print and cut out to give you a very useful reference tool for finding the resistive values of 4 or 5-band resistors using this free and simple Resistor Colour Code Wheel.

The impedance calculator download has caused a lot of trouble, which may or may not be related to the age of this web site (hopefully we will globally fix this problem and more during 2013...) The problem is that in most browsers, it is not possible to download a .xlsx file (the 2007 version or later of an Excel file) from a Cold Fusion page that was created in Dreamweaver 11.5 (in case you want to assign blame). The file that Chris sent us was the first Excel file that we have dealt with that could not be converted back to .xls due to some tricks he employed. Many people have tried unsuccessfully to download it, and a small number have written to us to complain and we have sent them the file by email. Now we offer the ultimate patch: we zipped it. Download it and and unzip. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Here's a freespace path loss calculator contributed by Robert! It is something he put together for coworkers so they could understand Wi-Fi a little better. It allows you to customize the general RF situation in the environment (allowing you to match real world better to estimations). It also allows you to select different frequency ranges. This is an Excel 2007 file, software which we don't have, so we have yet to try it! If anyone has any comments of suggestions we will relay them to Robert. Note that the file is zipped, we had to do this because most web browsers won't know what to do with an "xlsx" file!
We have a new page that offers some free downloads courtesy of the U.S. Navy! The Navy Electricity and Electronics Training Series (NEETS) was written as part of the non-resident training course series and released to the public in 1998. We've only posted the topics that have to do with microwaves, radar and radio, but if there's enough interest we might upload the entire set. You can find these training manuals on many other web sites, but few have the bandwidth that we have for rapid downloads. Some lesser web sites even try to sell them! Thanks to Steve for suggesting this idea!
Pardon the minimal graphics, I made this not as a full self-explanatory file, but just something simple to give our CAD guys to speed up their work. Feel free to use or modify any of it, but this only works for AutoCAD. Other tools use a different method for calculating miters.
Our S-parameter Utilities spreadsheet is the ultimate tool for manipulating S-parameters into all manner of plots, including group delay, K-factor, maximum available gain, VSWR, mismatch loss, loss factor, and input and output impedance plots. You can now quickly plot all of these parameters, from any manufacturers' S-parameters that you can download! We recently added the ability to calculate length of a transmission line (if Keffective is known), or velocity factor and Keffective if length is known. The spreadsheet has the ability to import data in real/imaginary format (in addition to magnitude or dB). It provides reference plane extension capability, and averaging to the group delay, VF, Keffective and length calculation, and even does Smith chart plots! We recently fixed a bug in the GMAX calculation which fixes a problem where the 15 digits of precision within Excel sometimes aren't enough! (Explanation of this statement can be found here.) The spreadsheet can handle 2001 lines of data, if you want a smaller file it's up to you to truncate it. The latest version includes the Stability Measure B1, thanks to Kelvin. B1 must be greater than zero to ensure stability.
Back in 2006 we created the heart-shaped S-parameters file and offered it in a spreadsheet download. We all know how SNP files sometimes don't work, so we updated the file slightly and it has been verified to work in Microwave Office. We added a second smaller heart while we were at it. Just tell your Valentine to plot all four S-parameters on a Smith Chart, and he/she will get the image below (plotted in MWO). We had to zip the file, otherwise it won't go through the download chute (it doesn't like the .S2P extension).
Here's a Microsoft Word document that contains schematic symbols such as resistors, capacitors, circulators, attenuators and switches, power dividers, bias tees, DC blocks and assorted other microwave components. In the latest edition (July 2020), we've fixed the Doherty amplifier block diagram. You can use this file to create your own schematics for documents and presentations. Please send your feedback on this work-in-progress to techwriter@microwaves101.com.
