Resistors are widely used, but different applications require different types of resistors. Do you know the differences between radial and axial resistors?
Let WEET tell you, the core difference between radial and axial resistors lies in their lead arrangement and application scenarios.
INTRODUCTION
Resistors Types
Through hole resistor: Leads extend from both ends of the resistor body along the central axis.
Radial resistor: Leads protrude from the same end (or adjacent positions) of the body.
Mounting Method and Space Occupation
Through hole resistor: Axial resistor sizes for through-hole mounting, requiring linear space reserved along the direction of the leads.
Radial resistors: Support through-hole mounting and surface mount technology (SMD). Vertical mounting saves horizontal space, enabling a more compact layout.
Application Scenarios
Through hole resistor: Commonly used in traditional circuits, audio equipment, and projects with fixed requirements for lead spacing.
Radial resistors: Preferred for miniaturized devices such as printed circuit boards (PCBs) and high-density circuits.

As one of the most basic components in electronic circuits, a resistor exerts a certain hindrance to the flow of electric current. But do you know how to read carbon film resistor color code?
These colorful bands actually indicate the resistor's resistance value - a detail that can be confusing for many beginners. However, with WEET guidance, you'll surely learn to identify the resistance value quickly.
First, carbon film resistor is generally classified into 4-band resistors and 5-band resistors based on the number of color bands.
Start by memorizing this mnemonic:
Brown=1, Red=2, Orange=3, Yellow=4, Green=5, Blue=6, Violet=7, Gray=8, White=9, Black=0.
Resistance value:
Gold=±5%, Silver=±10%.
Take the CF Series 4-band resistors in the figure below as an example:
1st digit: Yellow=4
2nd digit: Red=2
Multiplier: 2×100
Tolerance: ±5%
So, the resistance value of this resistor is 4K2 Ω.
After this explanation, you must have a general understanding. Feel free to contact WEET if you need carbon film resistor!

Do you know how to choose an axial leaded resistor that suits you?
Here are a few suggestions from WEET.
Resistance Value and Tolerance
Determine the required resistance value (typically ranging from a few ohms to several megaohms) based on the circuit design requirements. Choose an appropriate tolerance grade according to the precision needs.
Rated Power
Select the rated power based on the actual power consumption in the circuit. It is recommended to reserve a 20%~30% power margin to prevent overheating damage caused by the axial leaded resistor operating at full load for a long time.
Temperature Coefficient (TCR)
It indicates the degree to which the axial leaded resistor's resistance changes with temperature. For precision scenarios (such as medical equipment and test instruments), select low-TCR models (e.g., ±10ppm/℃ or lower). For general scenarios, the requirement can be relaxed to ±100ppm/℃.
Package Size
Choose a suitable body size based on the circuit board's spatial layout. Ensure the pin spacing matches the pad spacing of the circuit board to facilitate soldering and installation.

It is presumed that everyone must have encountered a question in daily life: how to identify an axial polarized electrolytic capacitor - WAA.
INTRODUCTION
The core method to identify an axial polarized electrolytic capacitor is to observe its case polarity markings, which is the most direct and standardized way of judgment.
1. Identify the Negative Terminal (-) Markings on the Case
Color Band Marking: A continuous color band is printed around one end of the metal case. The lead corresponding to this color band or the electrode at that end is the negative terminal (-). This is the most commonly used negative marking method in the industry, and WEET WAA also follows this practice.
"-" Symbol Marking: Some capacitors have the "-" symbol printed on the side of the case.
Text Marking: A very small number of models are directly marked with "Negative" or its abbreviation "Neg".
2. Auxiliary Judgment by Appearance
Package Type: Mainly cylindrical metal cases.
Common Lead Configurations: There are two common lead configurations: radial leads and axial leads.
SUMMARY
Axial polarized electrolytic capacitors are easy to distinguish; you only need to carefully observe their appearance.
