An arrangement of multiple fixed and variable resistive elements or discrete resistors permanently encased, encapsulated, or potted together to form an inseparable unit. The resistive elements may consist of a thin layer of conductive material deposited on or fused to an insulating base, or may consist of high resistance wire (or ribbon). The elements 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.
