Radio-frequency types of these devices can be made with the Ayrton-Perry winding method. The MELF type of these devices are used over normal surface mount examples of them when higher performance is needed. Preventing floating pins from appearing on a microcontroller can be accomplished with the “pull-up” and “pull-down” types of these devices. Rheostats and potentiometers are variable examples of these circuit elements, whose strength and tolerance are often indicated with a series of up to six parallel colored bands. An ideal voltmeter would behave as an infinitely strong one of these circuit elements, which are usually symbolized with a jagged line. For 10 points, name these circuit elements that oppose the flow of electrical current. ■END■
