Four Bands

1.1 Ω resistor colour code

Four bands: Brown · Brown · Gold · Gold. The first two give the digits, the third multiplies, the fourth states how far off the real part may be.

1.045 Ω – 1.155 Ω

A gold band allows this much drift.

The same value on a five-band part

Precision resistors carry three significant digits instead of two, so the same 1.1 Ω looks different.
