Wire wound resistors are overlooked by many as being old tech, unlike the whizz bang laser, I mean frikin’ laser it must be cool. They tend to have the lowest Johnson–Nyquist noise of any ...

The DLA states, “alloys of 3% lead, by mass, have shown to inhibit the growth of tin whiskers.” For low-ohmic precision ...

Today, let’s look at the analog signalling used in USB-C – in part, learn more about the fabled 5.1 kΩ resistors and how they work. We’ll also learn about emarkers and the mysterious entity ...

Vishay’s CHA series of thin-film chip resistors, available in the 0402 size, provide stable high frequency performance in ...

Bourns, Inc. announced a new thick film resistor series that delivers high heat tolerance in a compact TO-227 package.

We’ll also look at how resistors work in real-world scenarios, showing you how they control the flow of current, limit power, and protect sensitive components from damage due to excess current.

The remote variable resistor functions as a voltage-controlled resistor whose resistance changes based on an applied voltage.

Resistors, however, never have the same properties. Thus, the ratio of the resistors changes with the ambient temperature, power dissipation, and aging at different film temperatures. The effect of ...

Stackpole recently introduced its RVCU Series high voltage chip resistors, providing design engineers, machine builders and ...

In a nutshell, each cable is supposed to have a 56k ohm resistor in it. This lets your phone, tablet, or laptop know if the USB-C port is connected to an older square USB-A port or not.

The 0402 resistors work up to 50 GHz, stay stable in conditions, and are used in cars, medical devices, space systems, and ...
