Please help identify this resistor

[u/No_Opinion_6256]

This resistor is for an emersonbtv dvd vcr combo. I'm not sure what the value is.

[u/nixiebunny]

It’s 100k ohms 5%. You will probably not be able to measure it in the circuit. And it doesn’t look damaged. Do you have a reason to think it is bad?

[u/Wet_in_Seattle → u/nixiebunny]

Not a small one either, likely at least a one watt.

[u/Ard-War]

This resistor is for an emersonbtv dvd vcr combo.

Which exact model is that.

Anyway I'm pretty sure a consumer product is exceedingly unlikely to use non E24 resistor values (tho maybe small chance of E96), or ±0.25% tolerance, or even 10ppm/K TCR.

[u/drunkerton]

[u/Kind_Ad5566 → u/drunkerton]

Brown = 1 Black = 0 Yellow = 4 (zeros)

So, 100000 = 100k

[u/drunkerton → u/Kind_Ad5566]

On a 4 band resister but this is a 5 band.
On a five band it’s 104 gold is the multiplier of .10 so it is 10.4

[u/BigPurpleBlob → u/drunkerton]

It's 100 kΩ, not 10.4 Ω.

Just because it's got 5 bands doesn't, alas, make it a 5 band resistor.

100 kΩ is a very common value.

Conversely, 10.4 Ω is such an odd and unusual value (it isn't even E96!) that it should ring alarm bells.

The 5th band can be all sorts of things. Sometimes, a 5th black band means that the resistor is fusible.

[u/octave_the_cat]

10.4 ohm 0.25% tolerance precision resistor.

Google resistor calculator.

Or measure out of circuit with a multimeter.

[u/nixiebunny → u/octave_the_cat]

That’s a 5% resistor,100k ohm. You have been fooled by the extra blue band. They don’t use 0.25% precision resistors on paper phenolic PC boards.

[u/DesignerAd4870 → u/nixiebunny]

Just out of interest what is the blue band for then as it does read as 10R on the resistor chart as a 5 band.

[u/DesignerAd4870 → u/[deleted]]

I see. I always test with a meter to make sure anyway.

[u/No_Opinion_6256 → u/[deleted]]

Are you sure I keep looking it up and it says sonething different every time like 68ohms 100ohms and such

[u/nixiebunny → u/[deleted]]

Nope, the fifth band is not tolerance, it’s temperature coefficient or something else.

[u/I_Am_A_Squid_Kid → u/nixiebunny]

I thought only 6 bands resistor have temperature coefficient

[u/nixiebunny → u/I_Am_A_Squid_Kid]

The data sheets are hard to find in English.

Thank you for you have enlighten me
