Choosing a resistor for pulse applications can be tricky business. What is the magnitude of the pulse? How long does it last? How often does it repeat? What is an acceptable resistance range? And then there are the multiple resistor technologies to consider. A typical...

Precision shunts are very precise resistors inserted into a circuit in order to measure the current flowing through that circuit. The shunt does this by providing a very small voltage drop across its resistance proportional to the current flowing through the shunt. ...

Heat dissipation is a key factor in the design of a power system; in a world where the trend is for more power in a smaller space, are TO-style packages still the best solution? TO packages were originally intended for discrete transistors, in fact TO stands for...

Maintaining a constant temperature around precision resistors is integral to maintaining the stability of a circuit. Even small fluctuations in the temperature of a resistor can cause errors in a circuit due to noise. The relationship between temperature and...

Digital multi-meter When measuring the resistance of something is a great deal more complicated if that resistance is very small. With bigger resistances, measurements can be as simple as connecting two leads between a digital multi-meter (DMM) and the device under...

We can make a wirewound resistor by winding resistive wire into a coil around an insulating core. We can also make an inductor by using a more conductive wire and winding it around a ferrite core. Both are essentially a coil of wire around a core, so what makes...
