Nonwire resistors are resistors that use in their work not the properties of thin metal wire, but other electrical materials: thin conductive films, mechanical mixtures of a powdered conductor with a bonding dielectric , etc.
By type of construction, they are divided into:
- thin layer
- Metals, alloys, nitrides, oxides, metal dielectrics
- Carbon and boron carbon films
- Composite
- Film with inorganic dielectric
- Bulk
- Film with organic dielectric
By appointment, they are divided into:
- general purpose resistors
- increased stability
- high frequency
- high-frequency forced cooling
- high voltage
- high megohm,
- for microchips
