An arrangement of multiple thermally sensitive resistors permanently encased, encapsulated, or potted together to form an inseparable unit. The thermally sensitive resistors usually are electrically connected to each other and may be arranged in any circuit configuration. Excludes RESISTOR, FIXED (as modified); RESISTOR, VARIABLE (as modified); RESISTOR ASSEMBLY; and RESISTOR SET, MATCHED. See also RESISTOR NETWORK, FIXED, FILM; RESISTOR NETWORK, FIXED WIREWOUND; and RESISTOR NETOWRK, VOLTAGE SENSITIVE.

Additional Information for Thermal Resistor Network

Thermal resistor networks are a type of resistor that is specifically designed to handle high temperatures. They are commonly used in electrical and electronic equipment components where heat dissipation is a concern.

These resistor networks are made up of multiple resistors connected in a series or parallel configuration. The resistors are typically made of materials that have a high thermal conductivity, such as ceramic or metal alloys. This allows them to effectively dissipate heat and maintain their performance even at elevated temperatures.

Thermal resistor networks are often used in applications such as power supplies, motor control circuits, and temperature sensing circuits. They help to regulate and control the flow of electrical current while also managing the heat generated by the circuit.

In summary, thermal resistor networks are a specialized type of resistor that can handle high temperatures and are commonly used in electrical and electronic equipment components to ensure proper heat dissipation and circuit performance.
