Here’s a tip from a wizened engineer I’ve heard several times. If you’re poking around a circuit that has failed, look at the resistor color codes. Sometimes, if a resistor overheats, the color code ...

With surface-mount components quickly becoming the norm, even for homebrew hardware, the resistor color-code can sometimes feel a bit old-hat. However, anybody who has ever tried to identify a random ...

Earlier, we already explained all about capacitors with lot of sub concepts such as types of capacitors, capacitor color code, capacitors in series and parallel circuits, capacitors applications, etc.
