ABSTRACT:
A surface-mount power resistor may be fabricated using a power resistor of conventional design as its core. A conventional resistor is reworked so as to flatten its leads from a point near their emergence from the generally tubular body of the resistor to the ends of the leads. The reworked resistor is then encapsulated from a point on the flattened portion of one lead to a corresponding point on the other lead, with the resulting mold being shaped as to have at least two opposing flat surfaces. The ribbon-shaped portions of the leads which exit from the molded body are then shaped as desired to afford the finished product. Similar surface-mount electrical components may be fabricated for any component with axial leads.
