Shunt Resistor: A resistor placed across the terminals of another device. Example; a shunt resistor placed across the terminals of a Potentiometer to change the devices characteristics.

Potentiometer Shunt

Stability: The overall ability of a resistor to maintain its initial resistance value over extended periods of time when subjected to any combination of environmental conditions and electrical stresses.

Surface Mount Device: [SMD] A device that is mounted directly to pads on a printed wiring board [PWB]. Surface Mount device do not have leads that penetrate the PWB.
