3.6 MΩ resistor colour code
Four bands: Orange · Blue · Green · Gold. The first two give the digits, the third multiplies, the fourth states how far off the real part may be.
Nominal
3.6 MΩ
3,600,000 ohms
Real range at ±5%
3.42 MΩ – 3.78 MΩ
A gold band allows this much drift.

E24 only — stocked less often.
Band by band
| Band | Colour | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Orange | 1st digit — 3 |
| 2 | Blue | 2nd digit — 6 |
| 3 | Green | Multiplier — ×100 k |
| 4 | Gold | Tolerance — ±5% |
The same value on a five-band part
Precision resistors carry three significant digits instead of two, so the same 3.6 MΩ looks different.
