A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that
implements electrical resistance as a circuit element.
The current through a resistor is in direct proportion to the
voltage across the resistor's terminals.
Practical resistors can be made of various compounds and
films.
The ohm (symbol: Ω) is the SI unit of electrical resistance,
named after Georg Simon Ohm.
Two typical symbols are as follows :

For example, 3000 ohm 5 % means
5/100 x 3000 = 150 ohm, so
3000 ohm ± 150 ohm, equals to
Max value of Resistor is 3150 ohm, and
Min value of Resistor is 2850 ohm.
