Slab Ceramic Resistor

Non-inductive, high power slab resistors are available in a few different materials:
Type 500BA slab resistor for high resistance applications
Type 500SP slab resistors for high power applications
Type 500AS slab resistors for high voltage, high energy and high resistance pulse applications
