Even its uses in circuits are many, but here we’ll just focus on the different types of fixed-value resistors, how they’re made, and what makes them desirable for different applications.

Resistors are electrical components that oppose the flow of either direct or alternating current. They can be used to protect, operate, or control circuits. In combination with other components, ...

Chip resistors are integrated circuit (IC) devices manufactured in square or rectangular chip packages. Resistors are components that oppose the flow of electrical current. They can be used to protect ...

When resistors are connected in series, the current through each resistor is the same. In other words, the current is the same at all points in a series circuit. When resistors are connected in ...

Perhaps it’s a side-effect of getting older, but it seems like reading the color bands on blue metal-film resistors is harder than it was on the old brown carbon ones. So often the multimeter ...

Proper inventory management for electronic components is crucial to organizations such as aerospace, defense, automotive, and ...

Elektronische Bauelemente GmbH (EBG) is one of the leading international manufacturers of resistors for high-performance electronics. Elektronische Bauelemente GmbH (EBG) is one of the leading ...

Complex circuits may have some resistors connected in series, and some connected in parallel. For example, the following combination of resistors shows two resistors connected in series ...

Chips in the semiconductor industry are categorized in two ways, by functionality and by type of integrated circuit (IC).

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc., a manufacturer of discrete semiconductors and passive components, announced that it is ...

I have my very first car in my garage: It’s a 1940 Ford pickup truck that I started driving when I was 14 years old. It was ...

The monument was similarly defaced in 2022. The anonymous group behind that incident called themselves "resistors of colonial ...
