Introducing heavy-duty resistors with a wide resistance range and various package and lead styles for tough applications

RIVERSIDE, Calif. -- October 28, 2025 -- Bourns, a leading manufacturer of electronic components for power, protection, and sensing solutions, introduces a new series of Riedon™ precision wirewound resistors. Designed for high accuracy and long-term stability, the new series offers a wide resistance range up to 6 MΩ and an extremely low resistance tolerance of ±0.005%. These durable, precision resistors are available in multiple package sizes, including axial, radial, and square, with a variety of lead styles, providing designers with flexible options.

Bourns' new wirewound resistors feature a non-inductive multi-pi core construction, protective encapsulation technology, and an extremely low typical temperature coefficient of ±2 ppm/°C. These characteristics reduce inductance and noise while maintaining stability and efficiency even in high temperatures and harsh electrical environments. Furthermore, this series is 100% acceptance tested to ensure reliability. These high-precision wirewound resistors are useful in a wide range of applications, including measurement instruments, bridge circuits, load cells and strain gauges, image processing systems, current sensing equipment, and high-frequency circuit design.

"The addition of the Riedon™ precision wirewound resistor series demonstrates Bourns' commitment to delivering products that meet demanding application requirements, delivering the low TCR, tight tolerances and high pulse withstand capabilities designers expect," said Walter Garcia, Resistor Product Line Manager, Bourns. "Furthermore, we can customize our products to meet our customers' exacting specifications, providing long-term value in critical designs where precision and reliability are essential."

The Riedon™ Precision Wirewound Resistor Series is currently available and is RoHS compliant.
