Decode Any SMD Component Marking

A free browser-based SMD code decoder that identifies resistor and capacitor values from surface-mount markings. Supports 3-digit, 4-digit, and EIA-96 coding systems with auto-detection. Includes reverse lookup, package size reference, and a full EIA-96 code table.

How to Decode SMD Markings

1
Enter the code

Type the marking from the SMD component — numbers and/or letters exactly as printed. The decoder auto-detects the system.

2
Read the result

See the decoded resistance or capacitance value with the identified coding system and typical tolerance.

3
Use reverse lookup

Enter a known value (e.g. 4.7kΩ) to find all possible SMD codes for that component.

EIA-96 Code Table

Two digits + one letter. Digits = base value from table, letter = multiplier (S=×0.01, R=×0.1, A=×1, B=×10, C=×100, D=×1k, E=×10k, F=×100k)
