Have you heard of "milliohms" ??
Most folks express would express that as 0.1ohms or in milliohms.
So if you google "Resistor multipliers" you may very well come across
the colour code you seek.

By definition it is not a resistor, primarily because it has no resistance.

I suppose you could call it an ass-istor?

It's the same as a +10 ohm resistor but you turn it around the other way.

Sure it is. I once knew a guy who could cook grits in 5 minutes: the laws of physics apparently ceasing to exist on his stove. And they weren't instant grits either. No self-respecting Southerner would use instant grits..

You can?t have a negative resistor. It?s physically impossible.

But you can. It was mentioned only a day or two ago in the thread on
neon indicator bulbs. It is incrementally negative, mind, not averaging
across the whole voltage space. And therefore called resistance rather
than resistor.

Also applies to the tunnel diodes I used to play with in the 1960s which
could be made to oscillate at GHz with hardly any other components.

That's still a positive resistance just like a resistor you add to the
circuit. The only negative resistance I know of is in certain semiconductor
devices and only applies over a limited range of voltage and current.

That would only be a negative incremental resistance. A negative
resistor can't be a passive device. Power has to be added to get a
true negative resistance. Line amplifier are an example of negative
resistors.

Wholey (and entirely) SH*T!!

Negative Resistor:

One (any) resistor in parallel with any other resistor - the net is less than either. That, ladies and gentlemen, and children of all ages, would be a 'negative' resistor. Full stop.

Are you perhaps thinking of reactance, which is some value multipled
by sqrt(-1)? Inductors and capacitors are normally not marked with
their reactance values because it varies with frequency.

Another possibility is that you have inserted the battery in your
ohms-guesser backwards, and are therefore producing negative
resistance readings. If not the battery, then perhaps the meter leads
have been reversed.

I built a -1K resistor once, as a school project. It was fun to play
with in various circuits. Voltage dividers with gain, positive
exponential time constants, things like that.

Negative Resistor:

I beg to differ. The positive or negative sign refers to the V/I
(Volts divided by Amps) curve, which of an ordinary, normal, and
rather boring resistor is positive. However, various components and
circuits will produce a negative slope, and therefore a negative
resistance, usually over a small range of voltages and currents.
Putting two resistors in parallel produces a different V/I slope
value, but does not magically change the sign of the slope from
positive to negative.

That, ladies and gentlemen, and
children of all ages, would be a 'negative' resistor.

There are few ladies and no children that read this newsgroup. I
think it's safe to say that none of the active participants could be
considered gentlemen by any standard. Perhaps you could do better if
you address the audience of engineers, who might find it rather
disagreeable to be conglomerated with the ladies, children, and
gentlemen of leisure.

Jeff:

You need a humor transplant. Either that, or your sense of humor is more seared than arid.

Two resistors in parallel deliver resistance less than either. Last I looked, resistors 'produce' little - other than perhaps a bit of inductance if a wire-wound device. Given the level of education with the OP, that is as close to negative resistance as he will be likely to achieve or understand.

Animal Cruelty Acts. Yes, certainly. The circus, along with dwarf-throwing, bear baiting, dove-shoots, buffalo hunts and much, much more represent cruel times in American History. However, today that cruelty has been largely been confined to human-on-human, and most of us are dead quiet about all that. Cute, fuzzy little animals, noble lions, tigers, elephants and whales are very safe causes with few objecting to them - but for certain "japs" and other "slopes", or little brown "gooks" somewhere or other. But not our neighbors, friends and allies. Gotta look at them with half-closed eyes (Duterte, Putin, Li, Salman), but that's all right. As long as the goods, oil, cheap wood and other 'stuff' keeps coming.

But we all sit back and cry crocodile tears about very real and very preventable human tragedies and do nothing or much worse. All for the sake of comfort. As a country and a culture, we are going through troubled times. We are about to lose, if it is not lost already, our primacy as a moral compass for the world, and we are about to cede that position to China of all possibilities.

Well, I've lived long enough for you to say "****" on an NG. Bravo my friend, bravo...

I have met Jeff on his turf (Ranger, TX). Best described as a curmudgeon that does not suffer fools gladly - and one who has lived enough of life to have earned the privilege of writing what he means - and meaning what he writes. I was in Texas on business, I had a free evening. It was only 94 miles from where I was to Ranger. In Texas, that is errand distance.

Me using the S word was chosen for shock-value, true. We are well-and-truly in dire straits - and without intervention from more enlightened minds, the United States will be seriously degraded, more so than now, certainly. We are averaging over two serious incidents per month, now. And the perpetrators somehow feel entitled to commit them. Worse, their behavior is defended all-to-often. When the swamp overflows in the Nation's Capitol, all the slime in the hinterlands feels entitled to come out and play.
