A metal film resistor is a precision fixed resistor widely used in electronic circuits where high accuracy, stability, and low noise are required. Compared to carbon composition and carbon film resistors, metal film resistors offer tighter tolerance, lower temperature coefficient, and superior long-term reliability. They are extensively used in analog circuits, instrumentation, audio equipment, medical […]

Carbon Film Resistor Construction, Working, Types and Applications
A carbon film resistor is one of the most widely used fixed resistors in electronic circuits. It belongs to the carbon-based resistor family, where resistance is obtained from a thin layer of carbon deposited on an insulating substrate. Due to its moderate cost, good stability, reasonable accuracy, and wide resistance range, the carbon film resistor […]
