There are various basic electrical and electronic components which are commonly found in different circuits of peripherals. In many circuits, these components are used to build the circuit, which are  classified into two categories such as active components and passive components. Active components are nothing but the components that supply and control energy. Passive components can be defined as the components that  respond to the flow of electrical energy and can dissipates or store energy. These components can be found in numerous peripherals like hard disks, mother boards, etc. Many circuits are designed with various components like resistors, capacitors, inductors, transistors, transformers, switches, fuses, etc. As a senior passive component supplier, Micrhom Electronics  manufactures wide range of metal foil resistors, metal film resistors, shunt resistors and more.

 
The major electrical and electronic components used in electrical and electronic projects mainly involves these components like resistors, capacitors, fuses, transistors, integrated circuits, relays, switches, motors, circuit breakers etc. In many circuits, these components are used to build the circuit, which are  classified into two categories such as active components and passive components.

 
A resistor, one of the most important passive components, is an electrical component that restricts the flow of current in the circuit.  Resistor can also be used to afford a specific voltage to a transistor. When current flows through the resistor, the resistor absorbs the electrical energy and degenerates it in the form of heat. Resistors may have variable or fixed resistances, Microhm Electronics, for instance, providing all kinds of fixed resistors, which can be found in thermistors, photo resistors, trimmers, varistors, potentiometers and hamsters. The current flow through a resistor is directly proportional to the voltage across the resistor terminals. The relationship is represented by Ohm’s law. Ohm’s law states that dissipation due to the resistance and the units of resistance is Ohms.
