Resistor: A passive chunk of material that resists the flow of electrical current. A terminal is connected to each end you’re done. What could be simpler? It turns out it’s not so simple at all.

Resistors are one of the fundamental components used in electronic circuits. They do one thing: resist the flow of electrical current. There is more than one way to skin a cat, and there is more than ...

How do you know if a resistor is correctly restricting the flow of electricity? Using a multimeter is an obvious answer. However, there is more to it than meets the eye. This article will explain what ...

Resistors are a type of electrical component which are widely used in electrical circuits. In fact, they are one of the most widely used and most important components of an electrical circuit. In ...

Fixed resistor manufacturers face continued demand for extended operating temperature ranges and AEC-Q200 qualified parts for automotive and industrial applications that need high stability in harsh ...

Malvern, Pa. — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has extended its family of thickfilm power resistors with the introduction of 30-W, 50-W and 100-W devices in industry-standard TO220 and TO247 packages.

Surface-mounted resistors are resistors that contain numerical figures in codes similar to the ones used on axial lead-type resistors. These resistors use SMT technology to decrease the proportions of ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Medical devices are leaving the confines of hospitals and serving the growing community-based and home-based healthcare markets. Growth ...

The epoxy conformal coating of IRC’s CMF Series of commercial-grade metal-film resistors gives them superior moisture for applications involving power supplies and industrial electronics. A series of ...
