Ceramic resistors as those that use ceramics to control a resistor's resistive value. Ceramic resistors are made of a combination of finely powdered carbon and ceramic material. These two powders combine in specific ratios to determine the final value of the resistor.

Ceramic resistors are widely used in many different types of electronic circuits and devices. While these types of resistors can endure very high operation temperatures, they also create significant amounts of electrical noise. Due to this fact, a ceramic resistor seldom finds use in sensitive radio receivers or other devices particularly susceptible to interference.

yes


What is the use of ceramic resistor?

there is less loss of energy through heat, ergo making a more efficient resistor.


What is 5W15RJ?

it may be a ceramic resistor. If it is a resistor, it'll be about 1 inch in length with 2 contact points. It sounds like a 5-Watt 15-Ohm resistor.


What ia a ballast resistor made of?

A ballast resistor is typically made of ceramic or a special heat-resistant material. This material is chosen to withstand high temperatures generated by the electrical current passing through the resistor.


How do you replace a blower resistor in a 1998 Dodge Intrepid?

Remove plastic air duct from under passenger side dash, and you will see a white ceramic rectangular resistor with a couple wires sticking out on the firewall by the blower motor cover. Remove screws on the resistor and remove wires to replace.

Why does a 1973 Duster overheat and turn itself off?

replace the ceramic resistor that is bolted to the firewall. It is approximately 4-5 inches long and will have wires on each end. This ceramic will also prevent a car from starting if the element inside is weak.


Pioneer a335 amplifier and the volume control resistor has broke i am woundering since they don't sell it no more what the equvilant of the resistor act1047 is?

If you cant find a spec sheet, take out a multi meter, set it to ohm mode and measure the thing. If its a variable find something in the same range, if its fixed you should be able to find a suitable replacement. If its a big resistor make sure you get a power resistor and not a standard ceramic one.


How do you change the coil resistor on a 1988 raider?

the coil resistor is a ceramic block on the top of your coil, you just remove the wires attach to it, put some grease on the bolts(on the new one) that attach the wires, and put it back together, to see if your resistor is faulty, just run a wire from 1 pole to the other, make sure you have a good contact.


On the 2002 Nissan Maxima when the blower resistor is bad does it make a vibrating noise?

A bad blower resistor will not make a vibrating noise by itself. Carefully remove the blower resistor (under the dash at the passenger side right foot area.) check to see that it is not hitting the fan. PS a bad blower resistor usually means that the blower will only operate at high speed. Usually a small fusible link on the resistor ceramic opens. Can be replaced with a small link of unmelted solder.


Where exactly is the fan blower fuse for speeds 12 3 on a 1996 Volvo 850 T5 turbo estate and what does it look like?

The fuse should be under the hood in the fuse panel it is #32 on the 97 850 sedan. blower speed 4 is on a separate fuse. I had the problem of speeds 1,2,3 not working and the culprit was the balast resistor. it is ceramic unlike the metal coils used in the American cars. the ceramic deteriorates and the wires break inside the resistor. see answer for ......Where is the air and heater blower relay located on a Volvo 850?.... to find out where the resistor is located.
