Electronic components > Resistors

thermistor
Electronic components; Resistors

A resistor whose resistance varies with temperature in a defined manner. A device which produces a large change in resistance due to a change in body temperature. There are two ...

fixed resistor
Electronic components; Resistors

A resistor having a definite resistance value that cannot be adjusted. A resistor whose ohmic value cannot be adjusted or varied. Types of fixed resistors include fixed film, ...

ohm
Electronic components; Resistors

The unit of electrical resistance. That value of electrical resistance through which a constant potential difference of 1 volt across the resistance will maintain a current flow ...

cut tape resistor
Electronic components; Resistors

Resistors purchased on a roll of paper tape. Cut-Tape refers to a portion of the original size of the tape which has been cut to order, or to the amount required. Normally ...

axial leaded
Electronic components; Resistors

Both leads of the component travel along the axis, one lead on either side of the component. A through-hole resistor. Design hint: Surface mount resistors are preferred because of ...

burn-in
Electronic components; Resistors

A method of screening or pre-screening a resistor at its specified operational limits to insure its reliability. The process of screening out marginal component parts by exposing ...

nonlinear resistor
Electronic components; Resistors

A resistor who's value changes based on temperature (Thermistor) or voltage (Varistor). A resistor who's value does not change in a linear fashion. In normal cases a resistor's ...
