What Is A Resistor ? ?

A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that works to resist electric current within a circuit element.

Practical resistors as discrete components can be composed of various compounds and forms.

It is a common elements of electrical networks and electronic circuits.

Resistor is used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages & bias active elements.

Fixed Resistors Wire Wound Resistors

Carbon Composition Resistor

Array Network Resistor It is a combination of several resistors that are configured into an unique pattern.

Multiple resistors that are connected in series to form an array of resistors.

Resistors are majorly connected in parallel or series-parallel configurations.

Array network resistors act as voltage dividers which divide the voltage that is applied to a circuit into smaller amounts.

Adjustable Power Resistors Adjustable power resistors are designed to withstand and dissipate large amounts of power.

The common thing for all power resistors is that they are built to dissipate the most power while keeping their size as small as possible.

They are made from materials with a high thermal conductivity, allowing efficient cooling.

Designed to be coupled with heat sinks to be able to dissipate the high amount of power.

Carbon Composition Resistor Carbon composition resistors (CCR) are fixed form resistors. They are made out of fine carbon particles mixed with a binder.

Big advantage of carbon composition resistors is their ability to withstand high energy pulses.

Carbon composition resistors were widely used in consumer electronics.

Properties are less good in terms of temperature coefficient, noise, voltage dependence & load.

Wire Wound Resistors A wire wound resistor is an electrical passive component that limits current.

Wire material has a high resistivity & usually made of an alloy such as Nickel-chromium or a copper-nickel-manganese alloy called Manganin.

A wire with a high resistivity is wrapped around an insulating core to provide the resistance.

Common core materials include ceramic, plastic and glass.
