[sdiy] 82r resistor?

[Mike Brown]

hey Edward,

82R just means 82 ohms...

I think it's generally the international way of designating resistors (euro
list members could probably better explain).  But, I as found, you'll need
to understand these standards as well as american standards.

Some other examples:

resistors -
220R = 220 ohms
4k7 = 4.7k
2M2 = 2.2 meg

caps-
100nF = .1uF
6n8 = 6.8nF = 6800pF = .0068uF

regards,

Mike Brown

> Hi all, I am putting to gether a parts list for the steiner vcf, and found
that it has an 82R resistor. I have no idea what that is. can someone help
me with that. Also Ive finished my Gated Comparator! Very excited! I know
most of you are familiar with Ken Stones designs, but if you are not then
let me tell you they are wonderful! I am a bit of a beginner, and find his
boards to be very easy to read. Everything is so clearly labeled. I highly
recommend the comparator. I will post pics later with my panel design (made
by Schaeffers American counterpart) I made one mistake in the panel design
though. It is about 1/8-1/4" short of the frac rac standard. Oh well.
