decade values
Electronic components; Resistors
The available values for a resistor series that are common for each increase in decade. For example a 15 ohm resistor would change to 150, 1500 and so on with each decade ...
metal film resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
A resistor constructed by applying a thin film of metal onto a substrate of ceramic or glass. The metal is the resistive element. The substrate or the metal (or metal alloy) is ...
semiconductor resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
A resistor embedded within silicon. In some cases a semiconductor resistor is made up of two FETs that can be digitally turned on or off, or change in value. Semiconductor ...
vertical mount resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
A type of resistor package that mounts standing up, all leads on one end. A bracket may also be used to secure the resistor into the PWB, leading to the term bracket mount. ...
metal oxide resistor
Electronic components; Resistors
A (MO) resistor that has a resistive element made of tin oxide, produced by spraying tin chloride onto the substrate of the resistor body (either glass or ceramic) and then ...
pulse duration
Electronic components; Resistors
In some cases the power dissipation of a resistor is provided as power dissipation vs pulse duration. Normally the pulse duration curve is provided to show the peak dissipation of ...
load-life stability
Electronic components; Resistors
The long term stability of a resistor over the life of the device, under load. The more stable the device, the less the change in resistance, the better the resistor. Resistor ...
