Ceramic Surface Mount Resistor

A surface mount resistor is a tiny rectangular ceramic body with silver conductive edges on either end.

Ceramic surface mount resistor.

The resistor is made by taking an alumina or ceramic substrate. 4 6 out of 5 stars 3. Stated simply the pcb can expand contract and flex significantly while the ceramic chip can t. The real cause of this type of failure is the difference in coefficient of expansion between the pcb and the ceramic chip resistor.

We stock many resistor types including carbon ceramic chassis mount current sense film metal foil metal oxide wirewound resistors and offer through hole and surface mount packaging. They have metallised areas at either end of the main ceramic body and in this way they can be set onto a printed circuit board that has pads onto which the two ends are set to provide the connection.
