Here’s a neat trick for your next 3D-printer build or retrofit: a Z-axis sensor using a DIY strain gauge made from SMD resistors. We’re betting it could have plenty of other applications, too.

Resistors may look small, but they play a critical role in keeping electronics safe and functional. This video explains what ...

Yageo, a major Taiwanese manufacturer of passive components, has informed customers it will raise prices on specific chip resistors (R-Chip) products starting February 1, citing escalating costs of ...

The RMCA automotive-grade thick film chip resistor series from Stackpole Electronics is qualified to the AEC-Q200 standard ...

There are times when you might want an odd-value resistor. Rather than run out to the store to buy a 3,140 Ω resistor, you can get there with a good ohmmeter and a willingness to solder things in ...

Resistors are tiny components found in almost every electronic device, but their role is crucial. This video explains how ...

Resistors are a type of electrical component which are widely used in electrical circuits. In fact, they are one of the most widely used and most important components of an electrical circuit. In ...

Resistors aren’t resistors – at high frequencies, that is. Many designers don’t realize that parasitic elements in real components affect their values. When frequencies reach hundreds of megahertz, ...

Resistors that tolerate pulse or surge are required for pre-charge resistors, ESD protection, and lightning protection. There are a large number of pertinent specifications for different use cases and ...

As our economy continues to drive the emergence of energy-efficient systems such as hybrid and electric vehicles, composite aircraft, and wind turbines, the need for power resistors has expanded.
