Film Resistor. The film type resistor is composed of a resistive film deposited on, or inside of, an insulating cylinder or filament. Film type resistors have the best high frequency performance. The effective dc resistance for most resistance values remains fairly constant up to 100 MHz and decreases at higher frequencies.

Fixed Film Resistor. Same as a Film Resistor but contains a network of resistors. Refer to Resistor Networks for an example schematic of different styles.

Insulation Resistance: The dc resistance measured between all terminals connected together and the case, exterior insulation, or external hardware.

lead screw variable resistor

Lead-screw: A variable resistor that is actuated by a lead-screw. Resistors may be wire-wound or nonwirewound and may be single-turn or multiturn.

Maximum Working Voltage: The maximum voltage stress (dc or rms) that may be applied to the resistor.

Military Specifications: Military Standards for Resistors

Manufacturers: Companies that Manufacturer Resistors
