Surface Mount Resistors (SMDs) are usually made as very small, rectangular-shaped metal oxide film resistors. A thick layer of metal oxide resistance is deposited as it contains a ceramic substrate ...

TT Electronics has expanded its family of surface-mount resistors with the introduction of its Metal Foil Chip (MFC) resistors. The MFC series uses metal foil on ceramic technology to provide enhanced ...

TT Electronics has expanded its WHPC series of surface mount power resistors to include 1W (WHPC0508X), 1.5W (WHPC0612X) and 2W (WHPC1020X chip) sizes. These are the same size as the company’s ...

A new selection of materials has allowed Rohm to add 5W rated current sensing resistors to its 2512 sized (6432 metric) PMR100 series of metal plate shunts, formerly rated at either 2 or 3W only. They ...

Stackpole Electronics is a leading global manufacturer of resistive components including thick- and thin-film surface-mount resistors, axial-leaded and wirewound resistors, current-sense resistors, ...

TT Electronics is introducing a new service which will allow conversion of axial through-hole resistors into a surface mount format. The effective ZI-form option makes the characteristics of ...

A circuit board packaging technique in which the leads (pins) on the chips and components are soldered on top of the board. Boards can be made faster because surface mount technology (SMT) eliminates ...

There are times when you might want an odd-value resistor. Rather than run out to the store to buy a 3,140 Ω resistor, you can get there with a good ohmmeter and a willingness to solder things in ...

Spread the love“`html The world of electronics can be daunting, especially when it comes to understanding components like resistors. One of the key aspects of working with resistors is learning how to ...
