Thin Film Resistor Market & Advanced Technology

Writer:万利隆电子 Page View:Date:2024-07-19
The term "thin-film resistor" is also known as a metal film chip resistor and refers to a resistor that makes use of a thin resistive layer. A ceramic base is positioned underneath this layer. This resistor has an extremely small thickness of only 0.1 microns compared to thick film resistors. These resistors are typically employed in higher precision technologies because they are more accurate, stable, and have a superior temperature coefficient. Although they appear to be identical, thick film and thin film resistors have different manufacturing processes.

Thin Film resistor (like Microhm MVR series) is growing as a result of new trends and technological advancements such as smartphones, luxury cars, and others. Developments in sensors, connectivity, processing power, and other sectors enable enterprises to create products and services that are more efficient and productive. Chip resistors are used in advanced systems because they are more frequently required for the devices or systems to operate well. As a result, the demand for chip resistors is growing as digitization levels increase. This factor is expected to drive the thin film chip resistor market growth.
 
The cost of raw materials such as nickel, copper, aluminum, zinc, and others which are used in the manufacturing of thin film chip resistors is high. Additionally, the cost of chip resistors is rising due to advancements in electronic technology aimed at making them more eco-friendly. Chip resistor production requires high-priced raw materials, which drives up the cost of manufacturing in general. Therefore, the high price of raw materials hinders the thin film chip resistor market growth in the future.
