3.1.8 Resistors
A resistor is a passive component in electric and electronic circuits. Its main
task is the reduction of the flowing current to
“
reasonable
”
values. The most
famous resistors are the cylindrical ceramic type with axial connection
wires. The resistance values are imprinted in the form of coded coloured
rings. Enclosed are carbon-film resistors with the different values, shown in
the following table.
