Load Cell Bridge Completion Resistors Demo

See how precision in your load cell bridge completion module (BCM) may be affected by the resistor selected. Bulk Metal® Foil resistors are the only choice when no change is vital.

This demo measures the mechanical stress due to thermal expansion during soldering on two surface mount resistor technologies.

This demo shows ESD damage to thin film resistors is usually undetectable or latent, while Bulk Metal® Foil resistors are unaffected by same ESD.

This video demonstrates how rugged and stable hermetically- sealed Bulk Metal® Foil resistors are, even when subjected to the harshest conditions.

With its robust construction, the VPG Bulk Metal(R) Foil resistor sets the standard for survivability and long-term stability in critical applications.

Whatever the setting, VPG’s foil RTD simulators are an easy, accurate, inexpensive way to check and adjust the accuracy of an RTD based system.

A 3-minute demonstration of stability performance when different trimmer technologies are subjected to mechanical shock and vibration.

From room temperature to dry ice to boiling water, VPG Bulk Metal® Foil resistors are hardly affected by the temperature swings they'd encounter in a single day on planet Mars.

Bulk Metal Foil resistors can trimmed to any conceivable resistance value out to six digits with an absolute tolerance as tight as ±0.001%.

Li-ion battery chargers are complex and challenging circuits.
