Resistors
Non-inductive resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
A Wire-Wound resistor produced that exhibits low inductance characteristics, perhaps around 1 percent of a normal wirewound resistor.
Through-hole resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
A resistor that uses leads that penetrate the printed wiring board for mounting. For example the RNC90 resistor shown in the side-bar.
Dummy load
Electronic components; Resistors
A resistor used to terminate a line. A Dummy load is normally found as a removable device or component and inserted during test or debug.
Resistance wire
Electronic components; Resistors
A wire made of an alloy (nichrome wire) which has a high resistance per unit length. Resistance wire is used in wirewound resistors.
Lead-screw
Electronic components; Resistors
A variable resistor that is actuated by a lead-screw. Resistors may be wire-wound or non-wirewound and may be single-turn or multi-turn.
Cermet
Electronic components; Resistors
A high temperature metal dielectric composed of both ceramic (cer) and metallic (met) materials used in resistors and potentiometers.
Fusible resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
Acts as a normal resistor under normal conditions but opens under a fault condition. The resistors act as a wire-wound resistor and a fuse, and are used in applications where precise control of ...
