NOTE: On some five-band resistors, the third band is a third digit, the fourth band is the multiplier, and the fifth band is the tolerance.
NOTE: Some "five-band" resistors have a sixth band, which indicates temperature coefficient:
- BROWN
- RED
- ORANGE
- YELLOW

- 100ppm
- 50ppm
- 25ppm
- 15ppm
Inductors
There is also a four-band inductor color code that is about the same as the four-band resistor code, 1st digit, 2nd digit, multiplier, and tolerance, expressed in micro-Henries.
By the way, that's a 6200 ohm resistor, +/- 5% tolerance, 0.1% failure rate.
