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.

Stackpole is offering 0.01% 2ppm/°C precision surface-mount resistors in sizes from 0402 to 2512 (1 x 0.5mm to 6.3 x 3.1mm). Part of its RNCF range, these highest spec parts don’t come in the wide ...

Surface-mounted resistors are resistors that contain numerical figures in codes similar to the ones used on axial lead-type resistors. These resistors use SMT technology to decrease the proportions of ...

ARCOL Resistors introduced the availability of a new range of SMD Shunt Resistors as an alternative to the MSR through-hole style. There are two resistors in the CRS family, offering the advantage of ...

Surface Mount Resistors (SMDs) are usually made as very small, rectangular-shaped metal oxide film resistors. A thick layer of metal oxide resistance is deposited as it contains a ceramic substrate ...

Bourns has created a surface-mount thin-film resistor series with AEC-Q200 compliance for automotive use. Model CRT-A resistors are available with tolerance of ±0.1, ±0.25, ±0.5 or ±1%, and ...

High power SMD ceramic-based chip resistors are susceptible to solder joint failure, cracking, and pulling the solder lands off the PCB. This is due to the difference in the coefficient of thermal ...

Chip resistors optimized for use with conductive adhesives, from TT Electronics, maintain performance at high temperature up to 200°C and in applications such as hybrid microcircuits or medical MRI ...
