This is a code copy (not a fork) from https://github.com/VoxelCubes/ResistorDecoder.
Its a copy because, there are some infrastructure changes made which may not be very compatible with the original code base.
This is a standalone Qt GUI tool for color bands on through-hole resistors and number codes on SMD parts. It supports 3, 4, 5, and 6 band resistors, as well as standard SMD codes, including the EIA-96 standard.

| 6 Bands | SMD |

With this version you can also encode resistance values.
- Encode resistance values
- Decode the resistance and tolerance, as well as the Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (for 6 band resistors).
- Can parse SMD codes¹, including the EIA-96 standard.
- Respects your system's Qt theming.
PySide6
pip install PySide6
git clone https://github.com/AlfredoCubitos/ResistorEnDeCode
cd ResistorEnDecode/src
python -m resistorendecode
- Tolerance values are only standardized for EIA-96 codes and codes with short underlines. Check the manufacturer's datasheet if the tolerance is critical for your application.
On the way to pip package, now run the with python -m resistorendecode
