  2. RKM code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RKM_code

    For resistances following the (E48 or) E96 series of preferred values, the former EIA-96 as well as IEC 60062:2016 define a special three-character marking code for resistors to be used on small parts. The code consists of two digits denoting one of the "positions" in the series of E96 values followed by a letter indicating the multiplier.

  3. Resistor ladder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistor_ladder

    A string of many resistors connected between two reference voltages is called a "resistor string". The resistors act as voltage dividers between the referenced voltages. A Kelvin divider or string DAC is a string of equal valued resistors.

  4. E series of preferred numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_series_of_preferred_numbers

    Two decades of E12 values, which would give resistor values of 1 Ω to 82 Ω The E series is a system of preferred numbers (also called preferred values) derived for use in electronic components . It consists of the E3 , E6 , E12 , E24 , E48 , E96 and E192 series, [ 1 ] where the number after the 'E' designates the quantity of logarithmic value ...

  5. List of resistors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_resistors

    The strain gauge, invented by Edward E. Simmons and Arthur C. Ruge in 1938, is a type of resistor that changes value with applied strain. A single resistor may be used, or a pair (half bridge), or four resistors connected in a Wheatstone bridge configuration. The strain resistor is bonded with adhesive to an object that is subjected to ...

    The following historical mnemonics are generally considered offensive/outdated and should not be used in current electronics training: Bad boys rape our young girls but Violet gives willingly.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preferred_number

    In the 1970s the National Bureau of Standards (NBS) defined a set of convenient numbers to ease metrication in the United States.This system of metric values was described as 1–2–5 series in reverse, with assigned preferences for those numbers which are multiples of 5, 2, and 1 (plus their powers of 10), excluding linear dimensions above 100 mm.

  8. Resistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistor

    For example, a 10 ohm resistor connected in parallel with a 5 ohm resistor and a 15 ohm resistor produces ⁠ 1 / 1/10 + 1/5 + 1/15 ⁠ ohms of resistance, or ⁠ 30 / 11 ⁠ = 2.727 ohms. A resistor network that is a combination of parallel and series connections can be broken up into smaller parts that are either one or the other.

  9. Logarithmic resistor ladder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_resistor_ladder

    Again, all resistor values of the circuit diagram follow easily after choosing values for N, and R source. (The value of R load does not influence the logarithmic behavior). For example, with a R load of 1 kΩ, and 1 dB attenuation, the resistor values would be: R a = 108.7 Ω, R b = 8195.5 Ω.
