 The  Type MX Precision High Voltage Resistors were 

specifically developed for use in industrial and general purpose 

high voltage systems.  These resistors combine the proven 

performance of Caddock's Micronox® resistance system 

with new cost efficient design elements.  These resistors 

are intended for the design of high voltage  systems where 

the system is not exposed to full military or space  grade 

operating conditions.  For full military or space grade operating 

conditions, we recommend Caddock's  Type TG Low TC 

Precision  High  Voltage  Resistors or Type  MG  Precision 

High Voltage Resistors.

Type MX Precision High Voltage 

Resistors combine Caddock’s 

Non-Inductive serpentine pattern 

with a patented, high thru-put 

screen printed silicone coating.  

The alignment of the gap in the 

coating pattern with the gap 

in the serpentine resistor pattern 

provides a complete encapsulation 

of the resistor element.  The cap 

and lead assemblies are pressed 

onto the resistor core, finishing 

the resistor and providing rugged 

terminal attachment.
