The temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR), also referred to as RTC, is a performance characteristic that is heavily influenced by resistor construction for very low resistance values and can be ...

The resistance and conductance of a battery are two parameters that can be used to determine the health of battery strings and identify failed cells. As the two different values have a such a close ...

The impact of on-resistance on MOSFETs. The role of temperature coefficient in comparing different MOSFETs' on-resistance. What type of FET has the lowest conduction losses? There's nothing quite like ...

Insulation resistance testing is one of the most useful predictive maintenance tests available. This test gives insight into the integrity of insulation. The higher the resistance across the ...

When evaluating shrinking metal linewidths in advanced semiconductor devices, bulk resistivity is not the sole materials property for deriving electrical resistance. At smaller line dimensions, local ...

Ever wondered why a battery that reads full voltage still struggles to power your device? The answer often lies in its internal resistance. This hidden factor affects how efficiently a battery ...

Insulation failure is the root cause of many electrical conductors and equipment failures. When insulation fails, not only can equipment be damaged, but fire and shock can also result. Ideally, when ...
