An electronic color code or electronic colour code (see spelling differences) is used to indicate the values or ratings of electronic components, usually for resistors, but also for capacitors, inductors, diodes and others. A separate code, the 25-pair color code, is used to identify wires in some telecommunications cables. Different codes are used for wire leads on devices such as ...
A mnemonic which includes color name (s) generally reduces the chances of confusing black and brown.

^ a b Before yellow and grey colored rings were assigned to tolerance values of ±0.02% and ±0.01% with IEC 60062:2016, some manufacturers used yellow and grey as substitute for gold (±5%) and silver (±10%) colored rings in high-voltage resistors to avoid metal particles in the lacquer.
The E series is a system of preferred numbers (also called preferred values) derived for use in electronic components. It consists of the E3, E6, E12, E24, E48, E96 and E192 series, [1] where the number after the 'E' designates the quantity of logarithmic value "steps" per decade. Although it is theoretically possible to produce components of any value, in practice the need for inventory ...

The code consists of an uppercase letter denoting the two significant digits of the value followed by a digit indicating the multiplier. The EIA standard also defines a number of lowercase letters to specify a number of values not found in E24.
The latest evolution of E Ink's color displays, Gallery 3, shows ePaper's potential in magazines — even if Amazon isn't ready for it yet.
I separated this page out from Electronic color code because it was cluttering up the article and so many editors insisted on making sure their most favorite mnemonic was mentioned. Separating this out to its own page eliminates that clutter and people who are not interested in learning about the mnemonics can continue on the page without disruption. Those wishing to learn about the field of ...
