Expanded lineup of compact high-power low-ohmic shunt resistors

ROHM has developed high power low ohmic shunt resistors that are optimised for current detection in high power sets in the industrial equipment, automotive, and large-scale consumer electronics sectors. The growing number of small motors and ECUs in answer to the continued electronification and motorisation of automotive systems, in particular, has brought about a higher demand for compact shunt resistors supporting high power applications. In response, the company has started mass production of the PSR series. Meeting the needs of a wide resistance range, the newly developed GMR series features resistances ranging from 5mOhm to 220mOhm, much greater than the PSR series.
