Do metal-oxide thickfilm resistors have shot noise? Any idea how
much, as, say, % of full shot?


I'm curious myself. My early low noise designs used metal oxide since
that was then the readily available low-noise type.

I can't quote any data as such but ISTR that metal film when it took
over that market was understod to be fractionally noisier.
