Thick Film Resistor Industry Overview
The thick film resistor resistors market is moderately consolidated owing to the presence of large vendors like CTS Corporation, Murata Manufacturing Co. Ltd, Panasonic Corporation, etc., in the global market. The key players are involved in various strategies, such as acquisitions and partnerships, to improve their market share and enhance their profitability in the market studied.
In March 2023, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. announced that it had increased the power rating of the Vishay DraloricRCS0805 e3 anti-surge thick film resistor in the 0805-case size to 0.5 W. The RCS0805 e3's enhanced power rating allows it to replace four standard parallel resistors in the 0805 case size, two similar devices in the larger 1206 case size, or one resistor in the 1210 case size. Designers can decrease board space in automotive, industrial, telecommunications, and medical applications while cutting component counts and placement costs.
In February 2023, Bourns, Inc., a manufacturer and supplier of electronic components expanded its line of high-power thick film resistors with four new AEC-Q200 compliant product series. The new Model CRM-Q, CRS-Q, CMP-Q, and CHP-Q Series are automotive grade and are claimed to feature high-rated power and superior pulse load surge capability.
