Resistor
a) An electrical component which provides
resistance to current flow
b) Most commonly used electrical
component
What is Resistor
Resistance
• It is the ability of resistor to oppose flow of current
• It is Measured in unit ‘Ohms’ and denoted by unit Ω
• Different prefixes are used to represent Resistance
• Three most commonly used prefixes are:
Resistance Prefix
1000 1k
1,000,000 1M
1,000,000,000 1G
Symbols
1. Internationally a zig-zag model is used to represent the resistors.
2. Whereas in UK most people use the symbol on left.
Types of Fixed Resistors ( Design Models)
Carbon film Metal film Metal Oxide
Wire wound resistors
Types of Resistors
Potentiometer
It provides variable resistance.
Phototransistor Tapped Resistor
• These are inexpensive and are very easily available resistors.
• These resistors are available in Ranges 1Ω to 100 MΩ
• The power ratings are in between 0.125-2W.
Cons
• There is a large tolerance in rating and mostly 5-10% difference is
expected.
• Such resistors are recommended for small applications like experiments
in labs. But are not recommended for large applications.
Carbon Film Resistors
• They re expensive compared to Carbon
Film resistors
• Are highly recommended for projects
Metal Film Resistors
• They have special ability to dissipate large quantities of heat.
• These are recommended when there is large variation in temperatures.
• Such resistors contain porcelain which is covered by metal (usually steel
or some kind of mixed steel alloy).
• This steel alloy is then again coated with porcelain
• Remember that porcelain has property to absorb heat through
conductors.
Wire wound resistors
• Such resistors are enclosed in IC’s
• They are expensive as compared to single resistor but are quite easy to
manage.
• Can be used where you require 4 or more resistors and less space is
available
Integrated Resistors
• They provide variable resistance.
• Are required when you need variable values, for example you may need 7k ohm.
• Have large values of applications in motor speed control, fan speed control, radio
frequecnies.
Variable Resistor (Potentiometer)
Symbol
Practical Look
Working
• Its resistance depends on the temperature
• If temperature changes the value of resistance changes.
Thermistor
How it looks
Symbol
• NTC stands for negative temperature coefficient.
• The resistance of such resistors decreases with increase in temperature.
• Such resistors are installed in parallel
NTC Thermistor (Continue)
Resistancealongy-axis
Temperature along x-axis
• PTC stands for positive temperature coefficient
• The resistor of such components increases with temperature
• They are mostly loaded in parallel
PTC Thermistor Continue
Resistancealongy-axis
Temperature along x-axis
• Used to identify the values of resistors.
• A color code chart is used for reference.
Resistor Color coding
• Resistors in circuits can be arranged in three configurations
1.Series
2.Parallel
3.Series-Parallel
Resistor configurations
• Two or more components are in series if the head of one connects with
tail of another.
• Image below displays three resistors that join in series to each other.
Series Configuration
• In Numerical analysis you are mostly required to solve all resistors to
simple single resistor.
• To solve resistors in series simply add them:
Series Configuration (continue)
• Two resistors are in parallel when their heads and tails are joined
together.
Parallel Configuration
• To solve parallel resistors the formula used is:
Parallel Resistors (Continue)
• Very often complex circuit contain series-parallel configurations.
• However you can easily solve them if you learn the basic concept.
Series-Parallel
• You need a ohmmeter to measure it practically.
• Connect Ohmmeter in parallel to the resistor and it will display the
value.
How to measure Resistance???
• In numerical problems you can find the resistance provided voltage and
current is given.
• Use Ohm Law for this purpose.
R = V/I
Resistors & Ohm Law
• Guzel Sansilaniz is an Electrical
Educationist, Design Engineer (Siemens)
, Part time teacher (working in a school
(voluntarily) too), student (wow).

  • 11. • They provide variable resistance. • Are required when you need variable values, for example you may need 7k ohm. • Have large values of applications in motor speed control, fan speed control, radio frequecnies. Variable Resistor (Potentiometer) Symbol Practical Look Working
  • 12. • Its resistance depends on the temperature • If temperature changes the value of resistance changes. Thermistor How it looks Symbol
  • 13. • NTC stands for negative temperature coefficient. • The resistance of such resistors decreases with increase in temperature. • Such resistors are installed in parallel NTC Thermistor (Continue) Resistancealongy-axis Temperature along x-axis
  • 14. • PTC stands for positive temperature coefficient • The resistor of such components increases with temperature • They are mostly loaded in parallel PTC Thermistor Continue Resistancealongy-axis Temperature along x-axis
  • 15. • Used to identify the values of resistors. • A color code chart is used for reference. Resistor Color coding
  • 16. • Resistors in circuits can be arranged in three configurations 1.Series 2.Parallel 3.Series-Parallel Resistor configurations
  • 17. • Two or more components are in series if the head of one connects with tail of another. • Image below displays three resistors that join in series to each other. Series Configuration
  • 18. • In Numerical analysis you are mostly required to solve all resistors to simple single resistor. • To solve resistors in series simply add them: Series Configuration (continue)
  • 19. • Two resistors are in parallel when their heads and tails are joined together. Parallel Configuration
  • 20. • To solve parallel resistors the formula used is: Parallel Resistors (Continue)
  • 21. • Very often complex circuit contain series-parallel configurations. • However you can easily solve them if you learn the basic concept. Series-Parallel
  • 22. • You need a ohmmeter to measure it practically. • Connect Ohmmeter in parallel to the resistor and it will display the value. How to measure Resistance???
  • 23. • In numerical problems you can find the resistance provided voltage and current is given. • Use Ohm Law for this purpose. R = V/I Resistors & Ohm Law
