Improves Inductance for High Frequency Applications
Preview
Token Electronics has introduced a non-inductive version KNPN Series of conformal coated, leaded wire-wound
resistors.
The KNPN series offers the expected performance of a wire wound resistor with the added characteristic of
vastly improved inductance, making it suitable for high-switching applications.
Wirewound technology has long been known as a leading technology for power resistor needs though it is
inherently inductive. Known as Ayrton Perry winding, a non-inductively wound wirewound has one winding in
one direction and one in the other direction.
By using a non-inductively wound version this greatly reduces the inductance of any given resistor size and value
combination; however, it does not completely eliminate the inductance.
This non-inductive winding is available in all standard KNPN sizes from 0.5 watts up to 6 watts with options
1%, 2% and 5% tolerance. The KNPN series is RoHS compliant and also can be supplied with radial, goalpost or
lancet preformed leads.
To address your need for technical and economic success in a timely manner, our custom solutions are available.

Application Notes
Wire-wound Resistors Application Notes:
● When being used in AC circuits, some wirewound structures give inductance ingredients or parasitic
capacity, so they may cause unusual phenomena such as oscillations etc. Quorum deviations of other components should be carefully taken into account for use.
● Application and Placement: Wire wound resistors use different gauges of wire as resistance elements.
Sometimes the gauge is extremely thin (finer than a strand of human hair) and very susceptible to breakage
in environments containing salts, ash, dust and corrosives. Avoid utilization in such environments.
● Do not install in dusty areas because the accumulation will cause shorts and poor conductance.
