Abstract
Disk resistors are widely used in micropotentiometers up to frequencies in the radio frequency range. They offer very small AC–DC differences but the permissible power dissipation is quite small. Also, the resistance value is poorly defined due to the lack of four-terminal connections. This can be overcome by newly designed disk resistors made of surface mount device components [1]. They are also well suited as AC–DC current shunts for currents up to several amperes.
