Exxelia Ohmcraft: Empowering Military Innovations

Exxelia Ohmcraft’s high-performance resistors enable military product designers for army.

Exxelia Ohmcraft resistor Innovation is the cornerstone of military success. At Exxelia Ohmcraft, we understand this fundamental truth. For over two decades, we have been the stalwart provider in the realm of electronic warfare, weapons platforms, force protection, and intelligence programs. Our steadfast commitment lies in enabling advancements across diverse military sectors through our unparalleled custom resistors.

Our unique Micropen® precision printing technology produces ultra-stable parts that are perfectly suited to the military’s rugged requirements, delivering a typical load life of 0.1% over 10,000 hours. This proven stability, accuracy, and quality support the long-term program life of many military products and programs. Micropen technology produces a superior resistor. The combination of our longer serpentine pattern and high-aspect ratio gives our resistors unmatched design flexibility, linearity, stability, and low noise capability, as well as:

Exxelia Ohmcraft’s Small, Low-Noise Resistors Maximize Design Options and Accuracy for Sensor Manufacturers

For more than 25 years, leading sensor manufacturers have turned to Exxelia Ohmcraft to provide small-form-factor, ultra-low-noise surface mount resistors to be used in a variety of critical sensor applications. In these applications, Exxelia Ohmcraft’s resistors enable designers to miniaturize the sensor’s footprint or accommodate multiple sensors in close proximity to each other—all while increasing accuracy of the end products. Resistors have a certain amount of electrical noise that is inherent in their construction, and the higher the noise, the more distorted the signal can become. Exxelia Ohmcraft’s high-resistance, low-noise chip resistors provide clearer signals to the sensor electronics, thereby improving their accuracy. To ensure requirements are met for specialty sensors such as those used to measure acceleration, velocity, or vibration, Exxelia Ohmcraft works closely with design engineers, who appreciate the combination of high performance, reliability, and small form factor that the company can provide. “Finding resistors that check all of these boxes can be a challenge for sensor designers. At Exxelia Ohmcraft, our understanding of these requirements allows us to provide the highest performing solution at the lowest possible cost,” said Eric Van Wormer, Vice President of Exxelia Ohmcraft. "In sensor electronics, it can be difficult to distinguish the signal one is trying to measure from the noise of the surrounding environment, but our low-noise resistors ensure that the signal quality is maximized.” Exxelia Ohmcraft’s technology utilizes the proprietary Micropen electronic printing system to “print” precise, narrow, serpentine lines with resistive ink on a ceramic substrate, producing higher performance resistors over a wider range of values on a smaller surface area than is possible with conventional film resistor technology.
