Resistors are one of the most basic yet crucial components in all electronic devices, but what do they actually do, and how ...

He came up with Ohm Sense, an iPhone app that will take a picture of a resistor and calculate the value based on the color bands. It’s a great tool that we wish we had when we were starting out.

Resistor values are measured in Ohms, which indicates electrical resistance. A brand new, still-in-the-packaging resistor should have its Ohms value printed out for easy reading, but any resistors ...

One of the questions we're often asked about Mopar ignition systems is whether or not the ballast resistor is a necessary item. In fact, there seems to be a lot of mystery surrounding this part ...

Unfortunately, while most public guidelines for estimating resistor aging are reasonably conservative, the issue is designers are following typical data and advertising hype and not the actual limits ...

There is a funnel that admits one resistor at a time into a test area where it is measured. A plate at the bottom rotates depending on the measured value. In the current implementation ...

The solution is easy: add a load resistor to the plumbing. Rick is busy trying to convert webBikeWorld to the new responsive design. So he asked me to install a load resistor on the BMW F800S and ...

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).
