As [Electronoobs] points out, everything has resistance. So, how hard can it be to make a high-power resistor? In the video below, he examines a commercial power resistor and how to make your own ...

Figure 2: Power FET compact models are making the transition from a 2-terminal to a 3-terminal resistor model equivalent network to model the drain drift-region. The r3_cmc (henceforth known as ‘R3’) ...

What kinds of applications utilize precision resistor trimming? Obvious applications include setting operational-amplifier gain and offset and voltage regulator output (Fig. 1a and 1b). But there are ...

There are so many applications for power resistors that they cannot be easily tabulated. Discussed here are a few practical, useful applications that you will find interesting. First an image with ...
