resistor
- Noun:
- An electrical component that resists the flow of electric current: A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. Its primary function is to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, divide voltages, and terminate transmission lines.
- Noun:
- A 10-ohm resistor is needed for this circuit.
- The technician replaced the burnt-out resistor on the circuit board.
- Resistors are color-coded to indicate their resistance value.
- "To act as a resistor": To function in a way that impedes or limits flow or progress, often used metaphorically.

- Resistive (adj): Having the property of resistance.
- The material is highly resistive to electric current.
- Impedance component (technical)
- Ohmic device (technical)
