                  |  This specification is pertinent to the application of fixed  
                    metal oxide resistors (designated as RS). |

                  | 3. Type: |  
                
                 
                  |  Two types of fixed metal oxide resistors are  
                    available, one is normal size and the other one is  |  
                
                 
                  |  small size. These two types are distinguished by the color  
                    of the coating resin. The color of the  |  
                
                 
                  |  resin for the normal size is gray and that for the small  
                    size is pinkish red.  |  
                
                 
                  | 4.Marking and illustration: |  
                
                 
                  |  Two types of designation methods are available for metal  
                    oxide resistors. One is black ink  |  
                
                 
                  |  alphanumeric marking and the other one is color code marking.  
                    The criteria of using either one of  |  
                
                 
                  |  the marking methods depend on the size of the resistors  
                    and customers request which is listed in  |
