Determine the resistance of an electronic resistor from a specified list of colors
ResourceFunction["FromResistorColorCode"][colorlist] determines the resistance of an electronic resistor from the specified colorlist. | |
ResourceFunction["FromResistorColorCode"][colorlist,tolerance] determines the resistance of an electronic resistor from the specified colorlist and tolerance. |
Specify a list of colors to obtain the resistance and/or tolerance:
In[1]:= |
Out[1]= |
In[2]:= |
Out[2]= |
In[3]:= |
Out[3]= |
A list of 4 colors is ambiguous since its not clear if the last color is part of the resistance or the tolerance:
In[4]:= |
Out[4]= |
Specify the tolerance color explicitly:
In[5]:= |
Out[5]= |
In[6]:= |
Out[6]= |
FromResistorColorCode can take the result of ResistorColorCode as an argument. To get a unique result, you may have to select which color list item you wish to use in cases where ResistorColorCode returns multiple color lists:
In[7]:= |
Out[7]= |
The color list must have at least 3 colors and less than 5:
In[8]:= |
Out[8]= |
In[9]:= |
Out[9]= |
Silver and gold are not a System colors so referencing them by name requires using a string:
In[10]:= |
Out[10]= |
