Resistors are one of the most basic yet crucial components in all electronic devices, but what do they actually do, and how do they work? In this video, we’ll break down the fundamental concept of ...

Designers of instruments or control systems often find that component performance limits overall equipment performance in areas such as stability, frequency response, noise, and ESD. This is ...

There’s a small, silent component hiding in almost every electronic device—from your phone and laptop to your TV and charger.

This resistor with bands of red, violet, yellow, and gold has a value of 270,000 ohms (270kΩ) with a tolerance of ±5%. \( \begin{eqnarray*}\text{R}_\text{t ...

resistance is measured in ohms (Ω) resistors control current and protect components in electronic circuits. the coloured bands on a resistor is a colour coding system used to identify resistor values ...

The CSS series ultra-low resistance surface-mount metal strip resistor handles up to 45 A of current at 1 W. It exhibits extremely low inductance and low TCRs. Offered in a two-terminal design and a ...

Why get up close and personal with a resistor when you can tweak it from a distance? Remote variable resistors make analog circuit control easier, neater, and a lot more fun. Well, we are about to ...

[mircemk] built a slick-looking LED tester with a couple handy functions built in. Not only can one select a target current to put through an LED, but by providing a target voltage, the system will ...
