Sometimes it is better to not have a pulse
Wirewound Resistors To Absorb Energy Events The source of a pulse can come from many places including lightning, inductive loads (motors), capacitor banks, switchgear, or even switching heating and ventilation systems in and out of a circuit. A device such as a...
Typical resistors parameters and their meanings:
Resistor Paramaters • Impulse strength is the maximum allowed short-duration (impulse) electric energy that the resistor can withstand without exceeding the limiting temperature. • Limiting voltage, also referred to as dielectric strength, is the maximum allowable...
Precision or Power?
Precision and Power Resistors Resistors are often designated as precision or power. Precision resistors are designed for applications where tight resistance tolerance and stability are primary considerations, and they generally have restricted operating temperature...
E24, E48, E96 and E192 resistor values
Resistor Tables Standard Resistor Tables (Based on EIA Preferred Values)
Bleeder Resistor
Bleeder Resistor Bleeder Resistors are used as a safety feature to discharge capacitors to safe voltage levels after power is removed. A bleed resistor may be either connected permanently for cost effectiveness and high reliability or switched across a capacitor for...
Precision Resistor for Current Measurement
Power supplies are a major application for current sensing resistors. Space-saving surface-mount designs are especially popular in small supplies, miniature DC-to-DC converters, small battery charging circuits, switching power supplies, and uninteruptible power...
