An electronic component that is used to vary the amount of current that flows through a circuit. It works by sliding a wiper terminal across a resistive material, typically a thin film or chunk of ...

In Part 1 of this five-part series, we examined FET voltage controlled resistors, basic voltage controlled resistor circuits, and a balanced or push pull voltage controlled resistor (VCR) circuit.

What kinds of applications utilize precision resistor trimming? Obvious applications include setting operational-amplifier gain and offset and voltage regulator output (Fig. 1a and 1b). But there ...

All of this means that long-chain discrete resistor circuits aren’t ideal for EV BMS due to the system’s critical performance requirements. The Solution to Resistor Management ...

Hackaday Editors Elliot Williams and Tom Nardi meet up virtually to talk about the week’s top stories and hacks, such as the fine art of resistor trimming and lessons learned from doing overseas ...

Gustard’s all-new R30 is a sleek-looking R2R streaming DAC with a front panel display that’s part touch interface. According to the Chinese manufacturer, the in-house designed resistor ladder DAC ...
