Types of Resitors 1

• Carbon Composition Resistor contains carbon particles, which are replaced due to poor characteristics.
• Carbon Film Resistor features carbon film on ceramic, offering low cost, low noise, and better tolerance.
• Metal Film Resistor is a type of resistor with a metal film on ceramic, offering low cost, low noise, good stability, and suitability for high frequencies.
• Metal Oxide Film Resistor is a type of resistor with a metal oxide film on ceramic, used in high-temperature applications.
• Wire Wound Resistor is a type of resistor with metallic resistive wire wound around ceramic, offering high accuracy and low temperature coefficient.
• Surface Mount Resistor are tiny resistors for PCBs, offering high accuracy, low tolerance, and used in modern electronics.
• Variable Resistors are adjustable resistors where the value can be changed by turning a knob.
