Description
10W 3-Pin Cement Ceramic Resistor with Center Tap
What Is a 3-Pin Cement Resistor?
A 3-pin cement resistor is a wirewound ceramic resistor featuring an additional center tap, allowing engineers to create multi-stage voltage dividers, current sampling points, or balanced feedback loops. Compared with standard 2-pin cement resistors, the added tap provides more precise circuit control and easier integration into industrial electronics.
Key Features of the 10W 3-Pin Cement Resistor
The cement-encased wirewound element delivers excellent heat dissipation and long-term resistance accuracy, even under continuous 10W operation.
Center Tap for Flexible Circuit Design
The added tap enables:
• Multi-stage voltage division
• Balanced sampling circuits
• Power control feedback
• Split-load configuration in industrial boards
