The HCS series resistor is designed for current sensing applications and features a raised metal element that minimizes the heat forced into the PCB and surrounding components. It is available in 3 W ...
According to Stackpole, its RHC2512 chip resistor offers the lowest heat rise in a 2512-sized chip resistor. The materials, part design, and manufacturing processes employed by the company lower the ...
The heat in the resistor, in watts, is calculated by squaring the current flow and multiplying by the size of the resistor (Heat = Current ^2 * Resistance). Each range will have a different-sized ...
