US and Japanese general-use film resistors normally have beige epoxy overdip and a four-band code where the fourth is gold for 5% tolerance (silver for 10 and no band for 20, which essentially doesn't exist in film resistors). First two are significant figures and the third is a multiplier. In US practice small axial-lead inductors usually have an aqua-colored body, but it's usually molded. Yrs, d |
