RESISTIVE STRUCTURE AND RESISTIVE VOLTAGE DIVIDER ARRANGEMENT

摘要

The invention relates to a resistive structure with an improved electric field profile deposited on the surface of a cylindrical insulating substrate (20), whereas at least one resistive path or trace (23,33,43,54,64) is provided with a shape looking like a helix and is directly printed on the surface of the insulating substrate (20,30,40,50,60). Furthermore, a resistive voltage divider is claimed comprising at least a first and a second resistor electrically connected in series, where each resistor is made of one or more traces (23,33,43,54,55,64,65) of electrically resistive film material applied onto a cylindrical insulating substrate (20,30,40,50,60) and wherein at least one of the traces is shaped like a helix and is applied onto the substrate (20,30,40,50,60) by direct printing.
