Current sense resistors

10 June 2015 Passive Components

The CS5 is a high-power, precision current sensing resistor with four terminals, available in 1 m, 2 m, 3 m and 4 m ratings. Manufactured by Ohmite, this resistor series is distinguished by excellent long-term stability and TCR (temperature coefficient of resistance) of ±30 ppm/°C. These properties make it well suited to applications such as power modules, frequency converters and switch mode power supplies.

The parts are rated to 5 Watts and feature Kelvin connections to allow for high-precision measurements even with low resistance values. The CS5 series has a non-inductive copper manganin element inserted into a cement sealed ceramic case.
