Abstracts

The report analyzes and presents an overview of Fixed Resistors market worldwide. 'Fixed resistors are types of resistors having constant resistance values. These resistors typically contain a conducting material at the end and a resisting material at the center. The resistance value of these resistors is generally mentioned on the resistor body through code numbers and color coding. These types of resistors are widely used for acting as permanent barriers to electric currents in electric circuits. However, fixed resistors are considered to be less efficient in comparison to variable resistors due to the limitation of resistance values available for curbing the inrush current.'

The report provides a review of various types of fixed resistors, and challenges encountered along with the research activities. The report also discusses the strategic industry activities by leading companies including TT Electronics PLC, Panasonic Corporation, TE Connectivity Ltd., and others witnessed by the industry over the last few years. In addition, 57 companies operating in the Fixed Resistors arena worldwide are profiled.
