ABBREVIATIONS USED IN OUR CIRCUIT DIAGRAMS
Resistance values are in ohms. The symbol k stands for thousands. A resistor
marked 2.7 k has a resistance of 2,700 ohms. The symbol M stands for million.
For example, a resistor marked 5.6 M has a resistance of 5.6 megohms.
Unless otherwise specified on the circuit diagram, capacitance values mark­
ed with the number 1 and numbers greater than 1 are in µµl. For example, a
capacitor marked 3.3 would have a capacitance of 3.3 micromicrofarads.
Capacitance values marked with a number less than 1 are in µl. For example,
a capacitor marked .47 would have a capacitance of .47 microfarads.
Inductance values marked in mh are in millihenrys. Inductance values mark­
ed in uh are in microhenrys.
