Resistors

electrostatic discharge (ESD)

Electronic components; Resistors

A transfer of electrostatic charge between objects at different potentials which could damage the resistor via static damage.

non-precision resistor

Electronic components; Resistors

There are three classes of non-precision resistors: non-precision, semi-precision, and precision. A method to indicate a resistors value to a certain degree.

fuse

Electronic components; Resistors

A safety device that protects an electric circuit from becoming overloaded. Fuses have been replaced by circuit breakers.

resister

Electronic components; Resistors

A device that controls the electric current in an electric circuit by providing resistance is called as resistor.

resistors

Electronic components; Resistors

A linear resistor is a linear, passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. The current through a resistor is in direct proportion to the ...
