Hello all,
Wonder if anyone has ever acurately measured a reistor for a parasetic
supressor before assembly, soldered it to the PS inductor, then
un-soldered and re-measured the value? I would be interested in the
value change for various resistor compositions from the heat of the
solder de-solder process if proper heat sinking was done.
