Current-sense resistors available in many popular sizes and packages

Ohmite's current-sense resistors are now available from TTI in many popular sizes and packages. The resistors are used to monitor current in a circuit via a voltage drop and control circuit. Current-sense resistors are characterized by low values to minimize power consumption. Ohmite produces the resistors with TCR values as low as 40ppm, resistance as low as 0.0005ohm, tolerances down to 0.5%, and a wide range of mounting options from SMD to SOT-227 heatsinkable. Power dissipation ranges from 0.125W to 100W in the SOT package.
