Current sense resistor series spans 0201 to 1225 packages with power ratings up to 3 W
Sense resistors are commonly used in applications such as low-power electronics, consumer devices, lighting systems, and security or detection equipment for power monitoring and control. These applications often do not require ultra-low resistance values, tight precision tolerances, or low temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR). Instead, they prioritize flexibility in form factor and affordability. Stackpole’s CSR […]
