The difference between thin and thick film make this a natural choice. It is recommended to use thin film technology rather than thick film for 0.1% tolerance or better high precision products for better resistance consistency. From the perspective of product...

Medical electronics equipment is not longer just found in hospitals, clinics and doctors surgeries. Neither is its use restricted to qualified practitioners. Instead designs have become smaller, more portable and easier to use to the point where now appliances like...
