Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. now offers 5-W devices in its AC and AC-AT series of cemented, axial-leaded wirewound resistors with a SMD lead bending option. This WSZ lead form allows the devices to be ...

Here’s a neat trick for your next 3D-printer build or retrofit: a Z-axis sensor using a DIY strain gauge made from SMD resistors. We’re betting it could have plenty of other applications, too.

Stackpole is offering 0.01% 2ppm/°C precision surface-mount resistors in sizes from 0402 to 2512 (1 x 0.5mm to 6.3 x 3.1mm). Part of its RNCF range, these highest spec parts don’t come in the wide ...

ARCOL Resistors introduced the availability of a new range of SMD Shunt Resistors as an alternative to the MSR through-hole style. There are two resistors in the CRS family, offering the advantage of ...

Bourns has created a surface-mount thin-film resistor series with AEC-Q200 compliance for automotive use. Model CRT-A resistors are available with tolerance of ±0.1, ±0.25, ±0.5 or ±1%, and ...

High power SMD ceramic-based chip resistors are susceptible to solder joint failure, cracking, and pulling the solder lands off the PCB. This is due to the difference in the coefficient of thermal ...

How and why sub-milliohm chips warrant consideration as a separate class of component. Strategies for smart component selection, layout design, inspection and soldering process control. While ...

MALVERN, PA — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) has announced the launch of its new WSZ lead form option for the AC03-CS series of axial cemented, leaded wirewound safety resistors. The ...

Surface-mount Bulk Metal Z foil resistors are for automatic test equipment, high-precision instruments, laboratory, high-end audio gear, and other applications. The resistors are ultraprecise and ...

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.
