The RGP series from TE Connectivity offers a highly reliable range of metal glazed fixed resistors. These thick film resistors have a high working voltage making them an excellent choice for applications such as TV’s, radio’s and electrical measuring equipment. The range can be used in a wide -55°C to +145°C operating temperature.

Thick Film Resistors

Metal glaze resistors are manufactured using thick film techniques. The ceramic slugs have the thick film applied, the film is fired and end caps are forced onto the slugs, the resistive element is spiralled to value and lead wires are welded onto the end caps. Four layers of coating are applied - the first being a phenolic resin, the other three being epoxy.

The thick film is suitable for the manufacture of very high resistance values and for high voltage working Components.
The combination of high values and high working voltage makes these components ideally suited for such applications as TVs,electrical measuring equipment etc.
Thick film metal glaze series for high ohmic values and high voltage surge rating with a range up to 10 G ohm.
