Surface Mount Device (SMD) resistors, also called chip resistors, are among the most widely used passive components in modern electronic circuits. With the shift from through-hole technology (THT) to surface-mount technology (SMT), SMD resistors have become the industry standard for compact, high-density, and automated PCB assembly. This article presents an in-depth, technical explanation of SMD […]

Thick Film Resistor Construction, Working, Types and Applications
A thick film resistor is one of the most widely used fixed resistors in modern electronic circuits. It is manufactured by depositing a resistive paste (thick film) onto a ceramic substrate and then firing it at high temperature to form a stable resistive layer. Due to its low cost, mechanical robustness, and compatibility with mass […]
