Additional Details
The WSLP1206R0100FEA45 has a resistance value of 0.01 ohms. The power rating specifies the maximum power the resistor can dissipate without exceeding its temperature limit. The TCR indicates how much the resistance changes with temperature. The low inductance minimizes its impact on high-frequency circuits. The 'FEA45' likely represents a specific tolerance or temperature coefficient. The 1206 package size refers to the resistor's physical dimensions. Further details regarding power rating, TCR, inductance, and operating temperature range can be found in the Vishay datasheet.
