RESISTORS
the most common components in electronic
equipment
is manufactured with specific value of ohms
for its resistance (R)
the purpose of using a resistor in a circuit
is either to reduce current (I) to a specific
value or to provide a desired voltage (V)
Kinds of Resistors
1.Fixed Resistor
2.Variable Resistor
3
Fixed Resistor
any resistor whose resistance is
not adjustable or variable, but
it is fixed during manufacture
it limits the current in a circuit
4
Variable Resistor
Types of Resistors
according to
Resistive Elements
Used

Power Rating of a
Resistor

is a physical property
depending on the resistor
construction, especially
the physical size

Defects of Resistors
1. OPEN
.there is no
flow of power
in the entire
series path
.the meter
pointer of an
ohmmeter will
not move
16
Defects of Resistors
2. CHANGE VALUE
this exceeds the maximum and minimum
tolerance percentage
such value means that the resistor is
defective
