Non-inductive Wirewounds for Inductance Sensitive Applications

June 21, 2017 by Jeff Shepard

Stackpole's NWW non-inductive wirewound resistor series is designed for applications requiring low inductance. Although inductance can never be fully eliminated in a wirewound resistor, the Ayrton-Perry winding technique reduces the inductance by up to 5 times that of a standard wirewound resistor, making this technology usable in high frequency and high switching applications.

The low inductance series is available in power ratings ranging from half-Watt up to 10W, making the NWW popular for a wide range of power supply, control and automation, welding equipment, plasma cutters, elevators and escalators and aerospace instrumentation.

Pricing depends on size, tolerance, and resistance value. Contact Stackpole or a franchised distributor partner for volume pricing.
