IDENTIFYING RESISTOR VALUES
Use the following information as a guide in properly
identifying the value of resistors.
IDENTIFYING CAPACITOR VALUES
Capacitors will be identified by their capacitance value in
pF (picofarads), nF (nanofarads), or
m
F (microfarads).
Most capacitors will have their actual value printed on
them. Some capacitors may have their value printed in the
following manner.
