H I S T O R Y RCD began as an idea in 1969 when Louis Arcidy decided to leave his position as Vice President of a major components manufacturer and start his own firm, a firm that he vowed would remain unencumbered by short term goals and quality tradeoffs. Arcidy purchased The Ronel Corporation of Goleta California, a specialty manufacturer of precision and power military-grade wirewound resistors, inductors and delay lines. After moving Ronel across the country, Arcidy along with his sons and and a team of engineers, started business in a historic mill building in Manchester, New...

E R E N C E RoHS RCD has been active in environmental causes for decades (it’s no coincidence that our logo is green). All products are available in RoHS-compliant version (termination “W”). Most are also available with SnPb plating (termination “Q”). Refer to RCD’s website for additional details. RoHS Industry’s lowest prices RCD’s reputation for unsurpassed quality sometimes gives the impression that we’re a “pricey” company... not true. Our exceptional process-quality results in low manufacturing costs since we rarely have scrap or rework. Our pricing is generally quite attractive...

C U S T O M In addition to our catalog products, RCD offers hundreds of design variations as well as a wide range of fully customized components. While some other component manufacturers prefer to produce only their standard product line, RCD has been a “specialty” manufacturer for over 3 decades. We don’t mind custom and/or difficult items. In fact, we love a challenge so don’t hesitate to inquire. Single piece quantities to millions of pieces. If you need a resistor that will operate at cryogenic temperatures, in an acidic atmosphere, at frequencies over 100GHz, etc., contact RCD’s...
