IDENTIFYING RESISTOR VALUES Use the following information as a guide in properly identifying the value of resistors. BAND 1 1st Digit Color Digit Black Brown Orange Yellow Green Blue Violet Gray White IDENTIFYING CAPACITOR VALUES Capacitors will be identified by their capacitance value in pF (picofarads), nF (nanofarads), or mF (microfarads). Most capacitors will have their actual value printed on them.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION The Elenco™ Model LP-525K Logic Probe kit is a convenient and precise instrument for use in the measurement of logic circuits. levels (high or low), and voltage transients down to 25 nanoseconds. The LED readouts provide instant response to the logic state.
