Bourns, Inc. announced a new thick film resistor series that delivers high heat tolerance in a compact TO-227 package.

Other uses of resistors in power-supply designs. Bleed resistors are mainly used to discharge capacitors in the circuit. They are situated in parallel with the load and are used in AC-DC and DC-DC ...

Higher; Current, potential difference, power and resistance Resistors in parallel. Current, potential difference, power and resistance can be calculated to analyse circuits including potential ...

WDBR Series planar thick-film resistors carry surge power ratings up to 7 kW and feature a steel substrate that provides direct transfer of thermal energy to an external heat ...

And of course, with the heat dissipation spread out, these run much cooler than the original. Parallel resistors are a bit harder to calculate in that R TOTAL = (R 1 × R 2) / (R 1 + R2). Parallel ...

Riedon’s PF series offers low-inductance power film resistors in various package housings to support different power ratings such as 20-W TO-126 and 50-W TO-220.

Dissipation up to 1000W; high pulse power capability; suit multiple applications including railway heating elements; DC-Link capacitors; load bank for continuous power and others Vishay’s new GBS ...

Wire-wound resistors are often used when you need resistance with a higher power dissipation than a common film or composition resistor. Using nichrome wire makes this more practical since a meter ...

If power dissipation is a problem, ... To configure parallel drivers with high-side pass elements, however, ... their current-sense resistors must be on the high (anode) ...

MALVERN, PA — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) has expanded its D2TO35 series of surface-mount thick film power resistors with the introduction of the D2TO35H. The new Automotive Grade ...
