Resistor Construction

Resistor Cut-away view.
The graphic is a cut-away view of the construction of a axial lead Resistor [non-hermetic].


Leaded Through-hole Resistor
This is a Ceramic, laser trimmed device which is conformal coated.

Elements include Copper lead,Weld joint, End cap, Ceramic substrate, Nickel film and Conformal coat.
Note that not all resistors are constructed in the manner shown.
