Three types of ceramics for different applications
The Globar® product range of bulk ceramic non-inductive resistors includes a broad range of standard or custom-designed resistors of three basic bulk ceramic materials - all superior to non-inductive wire wound, film and composition resistors.
Cost-effective solution
Whether your problem involves high power dissipation, high energy pulse work, circuit protection or other high stress applications, Globar® bulk ceramic resistors is the cost-effective solution to meet your needs. Our full product line consists of three basic bulk ceramic materials.
Type SP ceramics
Type SP ceramics provide great non-inductive power handling capacity - at frequencies into the GHz range. Typical applications are:
- High power / high frequency resistors
- Snubber resistors
- Current limiting resistors
- Current sensing resistors
- Parasitic suppression resistors
- Harmonic filter resistors
Type AS ceramics
Type AS ceramics are able to absorb high energy at high voltage while remaining non-inductive. Typical applications are:
- Capacitor charge and discharge resistors
- Capacitor crowbar resistors
- Impulse voltage generator resistors
- Pulse-forming network resistors
- Snubber resistors
- High voltage power supply resistors
- Laser power supply resistors
Type A ceramics
Type A ceramics have non-inductive capability, power dissipation and energy absorption at high voltage when high resistance is required. Typical applications are:
- Capacitor charge and discharge resistors
- Bleeder resistors
- High voltage power supplies
