Resistance Values:
For all styles except RNC90Y resistance values in ohms are identified by four characters. The first three digits represent significant figures and the last digit specifies the number of zeroes to follow. For example 1001 indicates 1,000 ohms and 1002 indicates 10,000 ohms. For values less than or equal to 100 ohms the letter "R" is used to indicate a decimal point. For example 10R0 indicates 10.0 ohms.

RNC90Y resistance values in ohms are identified by six characters consisting of five digits and a letter. The letter is used simultaneously as a decimal point and as a multiplier. For resistance values:

a. Greater than or equal to 1 ohm but less than 1,000 ohms, the letter "R" is used to represent a decimal point.
b. Greater than or equal to 1,000 ohms but less than 1 megohm, the letter "K" is used to represent a decimal point.

Also, it is possible to order RNC90Y resistors with tolerance V, T, A, or B with any resistance value within the minimum and maximum values shown in the tables herein. However, it is preferred that values be chosen from the standard values shown in the tables.
