The following pages detail the pulse handling and overload characteristics of TT Electronics' most popular wirewound resistors.
Technical Note TN002: Instant Access to RoHS, REACH, Conflict Mineral and other Compliance Data Online for TT Electronics Resistors
This application note aims to guide the designer in selecting the optimum components for all these areas. It should be read in conjunction with the full product data sheets.
Technical Note TN004 - Methods for Marking Values on Resistors
Fusible resistors targeted at line input applications
Technical Note TN007 - Instant Access to Life Cycle and Obsolete Product Data Online for TT Electronics Resistors
This application note aims to guide the designer in selecting the optimum components by providing product data relevant to protection, voltage measurement and current shunt components.
Resistors can be supplied with various pre-formed leads.
This packing specification covers tape packing of axial resistor products of IRC origin.
This application note aims to simplify the processes of value selection and design verification, and should be read in conjunction with the full product datasheet.
The need to measure the flow of current in electronic systems is becoming increasingly widespread. Reasons for this include the growth of battery-powered portable products, increasing concern to minimise energy usage, and the spread of electrically actuated systems in cars.
This packing specification covers all common chip sizes and only standard Pb-free versions.
The WDBR range of thick film planar power resistors on steel, offers high pulse withstand capability, compact footprint and low profile, to many demanding applications including dynamic motor braking and industrial welding.
Modern battery operated equipment often requires the use of very low ohmic value current sense resistors for monitoring power usage and battery life.
Technical Note TN006: Recommended Layouts for SMD Resistors
Multi-gigabit per second data rates are now commonplace in the worlds of telecommunications, computing and data networking.
In addition to offering standard components, TT Electronics has worked closely with designers to custom build resistors that are capable of handling high energy pulses.
Resistors targeted at automotive applications
This Application Note discusses the use of resistors in different types of welding power supply circuit and presents a selection of suitable products.
