SMD code R315

Marking codes are not standardised, and the same code is reused by unrelated makers for unrelated parts. Below is every part in our tables printed with it, and any printed with a code that is easy to misread as it, from the manufacturers' own marking tables and published code lists.

R315 on a chip resistor

0.315 Ω

0.315 Ω resistor

The R stands in for the decimal point, which is how sub-ohm and fractional values are printed. The same marking also reads as 0.32 µH on an inductor or 0.32 pF on a capacitor, and nothing in the code says which; the body of the part does.

Other readings of the same characters, most likely first

  • 0.32 µH inductor
  • 0.32 pF capacitor

Check it with a meter

Lift one end and measure across it. A good one reads 0.315 Ω. Measuring it in circuit reads the parallel combination of everything around it, which is almost always lower, never higher: well above 0.315 Ω on the board is a fault. Open, or well above 0.315 Ω, means it has failed: burnt, cracked or corroded. That does not change what to fit: the marking still says 0.315 Ω. A burnt resistor usually means the part it feeds drew too much, so find that before fitting a new one.

On a transistor or diode body (SOT-23-5), R315 is a part code instead. Those parts are listed below.

Is it dead? One meter test per kind

Parts of the same kind are tested the same way, so each test is here once. Each part above points to its own.

This part

Diode range and ohms range, part lifted.

Working, it reads

Depends on what it is. The datasheet, or an identical part, says.

Dead, it reads

  • Between two pins, the same reading both ways, near 0 V with a continuous beep: shorted.
  • Open between every pair of pins: failed open, or a part that reads open when working.
On the board
this is a first look only: the meter reads every path between those pins, and a short can be a neighbour. Lift one leg before you condemn it.
Compare:
If an identical part sits elsewhere on the board, measure it the same way: that is what this one should read.

A dead part still carries its marking. A short or an open says it has failed, not that it is a different part.

Codes that begin with R315

For a marking with its end worn or burnt off. Each code has a page of its own.
