Miniaturization of resistors for our gadgets' protection

With the innovations nowadays like, smartphones, HDD/DVD players, and wearable devices, there is a tiny piece of device that does a big job. This tiny device is called low-ohmic chip resistor. With this device on our gadgets, we will be secured from having voltage spikes and over current. ROHM introduces UCR006, a series of ultra-compact, thick-film chip resistors that provides greater energy savings.

With a smaller footprint, UCR006 series, gives the circuit more space. This series provides a resistance for as low as 100 mΩ and a temperature range of -55 to 155 °C in the low-ohmic region.


 


This series has features, such as, an ultra-low ohmic thick-film resistors that contribute to greater energy savings, wide operating temperature range (-55 to 155°C) expands application compatibility, delivers twice the rated power vs. same-sized products, making them ideal replacements, and 3 key characteristics provide superior current detection accuracy.

Now that we know about the device that helps protect our gadgets, let's try to protect them too by taking good care of them. Ciao!
