The difference between wire wound resistance and metal film resistance

Introduction of wire wound resistance:

Wire-wound resistors are made of constantan, manganin or nickel alloy wire wound on a ceramic skeleton, with protective paint or glass glaze on the surface. There are two types: fixed and adjustable.

Wire wound resistors are one of the more commonly used resistors. The resistance body of the wire wound resistor is a resistance wire. The resistance wire is wound on the ceramic frame, the lead is connected, and the surface is coated with a layer of glass glaze or insulating paint to make the wire wound resistor.

The difference between wire wound resistance and metal film resistance

Winding resistance characteristics:

A: Non-flammable wire-wound coating resistors

B: Can withstand high pressure shock

C: Faster heat dissipation

D: In a short time

E: Low noise

F: Resistance has not changed for many years

G: The error range is small, ±5%, ±2%, ±1%

H: Power range: 1/2W-10W


Advantages and disadvantages of wire wound resistors:

The advantages and disadvantages of wire-wound resistors include high resistance accuracy, low noise, stability and reliability, but large size and relatively large capacitance inductance. For detailed advantages and disadvantages, please refer to another article about wire wound resistor.

Application areas of wire wound resistors:

Wire-wound resistors are mainly used to reduce voltage, shunt, load, feedback, transfer energy, and match in low-frequency AC circuits, or act as absorbers and voltage dividers in power circuits, and can also be used as The attenuation adjustment in the oscillating circuit and the transformer and the shunt in the pulse forming circuit.

In addition, it can also be used for discharge and spark suppression of filter stage capacitors in rectifiers. It is also widely used in household appliances, medical equipment, automobile industry, railway, aviation, military equipment and other fields.


Introduction of metal film resistors

Metal film resistors are a type of film resistors. It uses high-temperature vacuum coating technology to closely adhere nickel-chromium or similar alloys to the surface of the ceramic rod to form a film. After cutting and adjusting the resistance, it can achieve the final required precision resistance. , Then cut with appropriate joints, and coat the surface with epoxy resin for sealing protection.

Because it is a lead type resistor, it is convenient for manual installation and maintenance, and is used in most household appliances, communications, and instruments.


Performance parameters of metal resistors:

Temperature coefficient: ±100PPM/°C

Large power load, low current noise

High stability, good high frequency performance

Operating temperature range: -55°C-155°C

Accuracy: 0.25 [%], 0.5 [%], 1 [%], 5 [%]

Resistance range: 1Ω～10MΩ

Nominal resistance: E-96


Features of metal resistors:

A: High thermal conductivity porcelain core

B: High stability metal film

C: High insulation and solvent resistant epoxy paint

D: Meet the standards set by MIL&EIA

E: Good solderability

metal film resistance

The difference between wire wound resistors and metal film resistors:

1. The metal film resistor heats the alloy in a vacuum, and the alloy evaporates, so that a conductive metal film is formed on the surface of the porcelain rod. The resistance value can be controlled by changing the thickness of the metal film. Compared with carbon film resistors, this type of resistor has the advantages of small size, low noise, and good stability, but the cost is higher. Metal film resistors are bright in color and can be subdivided into multiple types of high frequency, high voltage, and precision. Most applications are in high precision requirements.


2. Wire-wound resistors have accurate resistance, stable operation, low temperature coefficient, good heat resistance, large power but small resistance, large distributed inductance and distributed capacitance, and high production costs. It is suitable for low frequency and high precision circuits.

Four types of chip inductors

图片
  Four types of chip inductors There are four main types of  chip inductors , namely wire-wound, laminated, woven and thin-film chip inductors. Two types of wire-wound type and laminated type are commonly used. The former is a product of the miniaturization of traditional wire-wound inductors; the latter is made with multilayer printing technology and laminated production technology, and its volume is smaller than wire-wound chip inductors. It is a key product developed in the field of inductive components. 1. Winding type It is characterized by a wide range of inductance (mH～H), high inductance accuracy, low loss (large Q), large allowable current, strong manufacturing process inheritance, simplicity, and low cost, but its shortcomings are further Miniaturization is limited. The ceramic core winding type chip inductor can maintain a stable inductance and a fairly high Q value at such a high frequency, so it occupies a place in the high-frequency circuit. TDK's NL series induc...

The main role of a capacitor

  The main role of a capacitor Capacitors  play an important role in circuits such as tuning, bypassing, coupling, and filtering. With the rapid development of electronic information technology, the update speed of digital electronic products is getting faster and faster. The sales of consumer electronic products such as flat-panel TVs (LCD and PDP), notebook computers, digital cameras and other products continue to grow, which drives capacitors. Industry growth. So what is the main function of the capacitor? 1. Bypass The bypass capacitor is an energy storage device that provides energy for the local device. It can uniformize the output of the regulator and reduce the load demand. Just like a small rechargeable battery, the bypass capacitor can be charged and discharged to the device. In order to minimize the impedance, the bypass capacitor should be as close as possible to the power supply pin and ground pin of the load device. This can well prevent the ground potential rise...
