Inductor Chart

This document provides information on interpreting color bands on inductors made by Vishay Intertechnology. It explains that the color bands represent digits that indicate the inductor's value in microhenries and its tolerance. For values under 10 microhenries, one band will be gold and represent the decimal point, and the other bands signify digits. For values at or above 10 microhenries, two bands represent digits and the third band indicates a multiplier of 10, 100, 1000 or 10000. The document also lists worldwide sales contacts for Vishay.

For inductance values less than 10 H, either band B or C will be gold and will represent the decimal point. The other two bands (either B and D or C and D) will represent significant figures. For inductance values of 10 H or more, bands B and C represent significant figures and band D is the multiplier.
