Resistors
heat dissipation
Electronic components; Resistors
Resistors produce heat energy as the electric currents through them overcome the friction of their resistance. They are typically constructed of metal wire or carbon to maintain a stable resistance ...
electronic potentiometer
Electronic components; Resistors
A semiconductor resistor that is programmable.
flameproof fusible resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
A resistor that is both flame-proof and fusible.
active resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
A Semiconductor IC that acts as an active resistor.
wiper
Electronic components; Resistors
That part of a variable resistor that moves across the resistive element, to change the resistance, as the control in adjusted.
