Full Line of Low Ohmic Value Resistors Targets Low-Cost Current-Sensing Applications
Riedon is targeting the demanding requirements of current sensing and shunt applications with its comprehensive portfolio of low ohmic value resistors, ranging from the economical bare metal element MSR series through to its CLSA series chip resistors that provide...
Low Cost Thin Film Precision Chip Resistors
When comparing thin film and thick film resistors, thin film resistors are able to achieve much lower tolerances and resistor temperature coefficients, have lower noise, lower parasitic inductance, and lower capacitance. With these better qualities, thin film...
High Ohm Resistors In A Small Package Size
High Ohm Resistors In A Small Package Size When trying to analyze very low electronic signals, a stable, high ohm resistor is required. With thick film technology, very high values (up to 10 Tera-Ohms!) can be achieved in smaller and smaller package sizes. With thick...
