About this product
The MPC75 is a 5 W metal film resistor with a value of 0.01 Ω and ±10% tolerance, supplied in a radial-lead package. Very low-value resistors like this are typically used as shunts for current sensing in power circuits. Its 14 × 5 × 18 mm body keeps it easy to mount on a board.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use the MPC75 as a current-sense shunt?
Yes, a 0.01 Ω value is commonly used for current sensing. Calculate the dissipated power as P = I²R at your maximum current and make sure it stays well below the 5 W rating.
How should I measure a 0.01 ohm resistor accurately?
Standard two-lead multimeter readings include lead and contact resistance, which is significant at this value. A four-wire (Kelvin) measurement gives a more accurate result.
