When tasked with a current sensing requirement, designers typically look first to using dedicated resistors designed for this task. Occasionally though there is the temptation to consider sensing ...

The BR Series radial-leaded current-sense resistors feature a raised open element that can lower PCB temperatures by approximately 20°C compared to similar molded or ceramic housed devices. The ...

Stackpole Electronics has introduced a new flameproof, open-air current-sense resistor technology suitable for high-current motor control and power regulation ...

The CRCW0201-AT e3 series measures 0.6 mm by 0.3 mm by 0.23 mm and is designed to reduce printed circuit board space requirements compared with larger 0402 devices, the company said. Vishay said the ...

The flameproof BR Series open-element, radial-leaded current sense resistors raise their elements off of the PCB, allowing maximum heat transfers to the ambient air. They promise to lower PCB ...
