Table 1  SIP resistor values and the corresponding  3 dB points of the frequency dividing network and EQ 

center frequencies. 

Resistor values given in ohms (

). 

Frequencies given in hertz (Hz). 

The  resistor  values  are  usually  coded  with  three  numbers  on  the  SIP  housing.  The  two  most 
significant  digits  represent  the  resistor  value.  The  third  number  determines  the  magnitude  by 
defining the number of zeroes that must be attached to number one and two. 

Examples: 

222:     2200 

 = 2,2 k

 

 

 

153:   15000 

 = 15 k
