What is the Function of Automotive Resistors?
1 Answers
Automotive resistors are used to limit the current within a circuit. In electronic systems, resistors play a crucial role. Besides standard resistors as components, other parts also have a resistance value that can affect the circuit's voltage and current. Fixed resistors and variable resistors are used in automotive electronic systems. Below is an extended introduction: 1. Introduction to Resistors: Resistance is a physical quantity that describes the conductive properties of a conductor, denoted by R. The magnitude of resistance can be used to measure the strength of a conductor's obstruction to current, i.e., the quality of its conductive properties. The value of resistance is related to factors such as the conductor's material, shape, volume, and surrounding environment. 2. Classification of Resistors: Depending on their properties, resistors of different conductors can be divided into two types. One type is called linear or ohmic resistors, which obey Ohm's Law; the other type is called non-linear resistors, which do not obey Ohm's Law.
