Fuse Resistors serve a dual purpose, as a resistor and also a fuse. They are designed so that they will open with a large surge of current without any flame or other untoward incident.Fusible film resistors are generally used for lower power requirements and applications where the overload and surge handling requirements are not too […]

These current sense resistors are predominantly used in automotive application in the DC/DC convertor output block and in battery management. The basic circuitry followed is that these low ohms resistors are connected in series with the load, and the potential difference between both terminals are measured by an IC to determine the quantum of current flow. The […]
A fusible resistor is a tailormade dual purpose component – There are basically two types of fusible resistors: (a) Tailor Made Resistors In order to correctly design a Tailor made fusible resistor to suit the customers specific application, the following data is required In certain cases the customer must be made aware that the compromise inherent […]
In Electronics, Capacitor discharge resistors or Bleeder resistors are resistors connected in parallel with the output of a high voltage power supply circuit with the express purpose of discharging the residual electric charge stored in the filter capacitors of the power supply. As an example, a switch mode power supply uses a bridge rectifier to convert AC […]
Traditionally Wire Wound Resistors meant coated resistors of either silicon or vitreous enameled on a Ceramic body which was wound with resistance wire which was welded or soldered to the terminals and these types of resistors were termed as professional or industrial grade Wire Wound Resistors.However in the mid 1970’s there was a demand for commercial grade wire wound […]
Simply put, these are tailor made resistors having 3 distinct resistance values which translates into controlling the Blower Motor speeds of an Automotive Air-conditioner. These resistors are mounted in the Air Flow of the Air-conditioner module and the reason behind this is, to keep the resistor as cool as possible. In the case of a […]
The types and specifications given in this catalogue are general in nature and apply largely to our standard types and hence if the resistors are to be used in special applications or are to be used in areas that need extremely high reliability such as life maintenance equipment, atomic energy, aircrafts and manned satellites it […]
