a. What is resistor?
Resistors are Electronic components that are designed to have a specific amount
of resistance.
b. Types of resistor? Meaning?
There are two types of resistors; Fixed and Variable Resistors.
o Fixed Resistors the value cannot change.
o Variable Resistors can change their value over a specific range.
c. Kinds of Fixed Resistors?
There several kinds of fixed resistors such as composition carbon, metal film, and
wire – wound.

a. What Is Resistance?
Resistance (R) is the amount of
opposition to the flow of electrical current.
Resistance is measured in units
called ohms, named after German scientist
and mathematician Georg Simon Ohm
(1787-1845), and it is symbolized by the
Greek capital letter omega (W).
b. What are the three most important
characteristics of a resistor are?
1. Resistance Nominal Value
2. Tolerance
3. Power Rating
c. How the Resistance of the Resistors
Measured?
Trough it’s color bands.
d. How do we know which color corresponds to
which number?
By using the Resistor Color Code.
e. What is Resistor Color Code?
In order to identify the nominal
resistance and the tolerance of a resistor,
manufacturers typically use a color band
system known as the resistor color code.
Resistor Color Code
4-Band Resistors
5-Band Resistors

Calculate the Tolerance.
2,200 Ω x .05 (or 5%)
= +/- 110 Ohms tolerance
Maximum
2,200 Ω + 110 Ω = 2310 Ω
Minimum
2,200 Ω – 110 Ω = 2090 Ω

4. Application
The teacher will group the student into
three.
The teacher will provide the colored
resistors.
Each group will get five colored resistor.
They will calculate the resistance and get
the maximum and minimum tolerance of the
colored resistors.
They will write their answer with solution to
one whole sheet of paper.
