In wirewound resistors, another selection factor is the temperature characteristic of the wire. The resistance of all materials changes as their temperature changes. If the temperature is lowered, resistance (typically) declines. In fact, if cooled sufficiently, the...

Wirewound resistors have been around for a long time. They enjoy a long life because they have some very important features not duplicated by new technology products. If you must optimize circuit designs where precision is important, you should understand those...

There is another quantity that is similar to resistance. It is called “reactance.” Like resistance, we measure reactance in ohms, and it follows the rule of Ohms Law. Reactance only occurs in electrical or electronic circuits if the current flow is...

Riedon’s precision resistors are designed for critical applications that require very accurate and stable resistance values. Precision resistors are normally specified when the wattage requirements are relatively low, and when high accuracy and stability are...
