🇵🇰 FIRST INDIGENOUS WIREWOUND POWER RESISTOR PROTOTYPES IN PAKISTAN
🇵🇰 Local R&D Breakthrough: Pakistan Successfully Produces First Indigenous Wirewound Power Resistor Prototypes, Paving Way for Semiconductor Self-Reliance
 |
Islamabad, Pakistan – [Date: December 13, 2025] – South Asia Semiconductor Limited (SAS R&D) today announced the successful completion of the first prototypes of high-temperature, roughly 20W wirewound power resistors (0.5Ω, 1Ω, and 2Ω,). This achievement marks a significant and historic step in Pakistan’s drive towards developing indigenous capability in electronic component manufacturing.
The prototypes, developed entirely by SAS R&D, have been created not for immediate commercial sale, but as a critical and foundational part of materials science and process-control experiments required to establish robust manufacturing discipline in the country.
A Foundation for Future Technology:
The successful development of a stable power resistor demands mastery of crucial engineering disciplines:
* Thermal Stability: Controlling how materials behave under heat and stress.
* Alloy Consistency: Ensuring the resistance wire is accurate and reliable.
* Insulation Quality: Developing high-temperature, durable packaging, demonstrated by the prototype's robust gypsum enclosure.
"While a power resistor might seem like a simple component, successfully producing it requires the exact mindset and skill set necessary for advanced fabrication like MEMS, discrete devices, and eventually CMOS work," said a representative for the R&D team. "Every prototype generated and tested is a vital lesson in localizing the complex processes that underpin the global semiconductor industry."
Commitment to Excellence and Scalability:
SAS R&D is committed to achieving international quality standards. The current R&D process allows for the rapid iteration and testing of hundreds of units daily, enabling the team to fine-tune material performance and manufacturing protocols before moving to large-scale, automated industrial production.
The company is actively seeking collaboration and support from government partners and investors to transition this proven R&D capacity into a facility that can compete on the international stage and contribute to national technological self-reliance.
SAS R&D invites all stakeholders, including government bodies, educational institutions, and the media, to focus on the performance data and the long-term vision this milestone represents for Pakistan's technological future.
