TYPICAL APPLICATION
RL Series
is an innovative method of providing low inductance resistors in a cylindrical ceramic body and is
increasingly replacing the moulded version.
The resistive element consists of a flat metal band which is spot welded to the copper terminals before
encapsulation.
The resistors are finding increasing use in industrial applications where pulse rating and ability to absorb high
inrush current are required.
Another important application is Current Sensing in applications which include switching and linear power
supplies, instruments & power amplifiers.
For the effective utilisation of these resistors, please refer to
“Application / design notes for current
sense resistors”
