Report Studies
• The Global Non-Linear Resistors Market size was valued at US$ 1.23 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach US$ 1.98 billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 7.0% during the forecast period 2025-2032. The market expansion is primarily driven by increasing demand for electronic protection components across industries and rapid advancements in IoT and smart devices.
• Non-linear resistors are passive electronic components with voltage-dependent resistance characteristics that protect circuits from voltage surges, overloads, and transient events. These resistors include several types such as Varistors (VDR) for voltage clamping, Thermistors (PTC/NTC) for temperature sensing and compensation, and Photoresistors (LDR) for light-sensitive applications. Their unique ability to automatically adjust resistance makes them indispensable in modern electronics.
