Lab Report 2

This document summarizes a student's experiment on measuring resistor values using color codes and a digital multimeter (DMM). The experiment objectives were to measure resistor values using color codes, measure values using a DMM, and determine tolerance levels. The student measured the resistance, tolerance, and maximum and minimum resistance values for several resistors based on their color bands. Key steps included identifying the color bands, determining the resistance value from the color code chart, measuring with a DMM, and calculating tolerance levels and range of resistance values. The student concluded the experiment by obtaining the resistor specifications from both color codes and DMM measurements.

Experiment No. 02
Experiment Name: Resistance Measurement with color code and DMM

Student name: Mujahidul Islam Akash


Department: Computer Science and Engineering
Semester: Summer 2021
ID: 1910332
Section: 4

Working date: 28th June 2021 Submission date: 13th July 202

Experiment Number: 02

Experiment Name: Resistance measurement with color code and DMM.

Objectives: a) To measure resistors value with color code.


b) To measure resistors value with DMM.

c) To determine resistors tolerance level.

Equipment: a) Resistors with different color.

b) A DMM (digital multimeter).

Color Code: 0 = Black 1 = Brown 2 = Red

3 = Orange 4 = Yellow 5 = Green

6 = Blue 7 = Violet 8 = Grey

9 = White

Theory: We will use the resistors band color and calculate it with the help of color code. Also, we will use
DMM for measuring resistor.

Procedure:

 Step1: Take the resistors and collect the colors from the resistors simultaneously.
 Step2: Using the color code chart calculate its resistance.
 Step3: With the help of the chart determine the tolerance level of each resistor.
 Step4: Find the maximum and minimum tolerance level of each resistor.
 Step5: Take the readings of resistance after measuring with the DMM.

Color Value Ω Tolerance level R (maximum) Ω R (minimum) Ω
red, red, black, silver 22 x 100 10 % 24.2 19.8
22 Ω 22 ± 2.2
blue, grey, black, 68 x 100 5% 71.4 64.6
gold 68 Ω 68 ± 3.4
brown, green, 15 x 101 5% 157.5 142.5
brown, gold 150 Ω 150 ± 7.5
brown, red, red, 12 x 102 10 % 1320 1080
silver 1200 Ω 1200 ± 120
grey, red, red, silver 82 x 102 5% 8610 7790
8200 Ω 8200 ± 410

Discussion: In this experiment we measured resistance of resistor by color code of each resistor. At first,
we took a resistor with band color “red, red, black, silver.” First red color has code number 2, as the
second band color is also red therefore it also has color code 2. The third color which is black indicates
code number of 0, it means we will give zero number of “0.” As a result, the resistance is 22 Ω. And the
silver color indicates the tolerance level of 10% of 22Ω, it means 22 ± 2.2. After adding and subtracting
we will get maximum and minimum. We measured the resistors also by the digital multimeter.

Conclusion: At the end we got the resistors resistance, tolerance, maximum and minimum resistance of
resistors.

Precautions: Observe the color carefully in resistors. Connect the resistor with DMM properly.
