Matched resistors are a set of resistors where an additional parameter(s) is given to link the resistors. For example, resistor ‘A’ and resistor ‘B’ have a resistance of 100Ω, a tolerance of 5%, and a TCR of 25 + 5 ppm. You may add additional parameters to this set...

In today’s world, pulses are common in electronic circuits. When these pulses encounter a resistor with high reactive components, they are distorted. If the resistor has high inductance, current through it will have a sluggish, slow rise time. The current will...

RTDs or Resistance Temperature Detectors are widely used to measure temperatures in all kinds of industrial products. In many cases PT100 or PT1000 is specified. PT100 stands for 100 Ohm Platinum RTD, PT1000 stands for 1000 Ohm Platinum RTD. Platinum, a precious...
