May 13, 2008 - Equipped with isolated and bussed circuits, S Series is constructed using silicon substrate, while Model 660 utilizes ceramic substrate. Both thin film networks feature passivation coating to eliminate moisture concerns. S Series offers resistance range from 1-100 KW for isolated networks and 1-30 KW for bussed networks, while Models 664, 667, and 668 provide resistance range of 1-100 KW.

BI Technologies Offers Resistor Networks On Silicon and Ceramic Substrates


LAS VEGAS, NV (May 6, 2008) - Providing design engineers with a variety of substrate
materials to suit specific applications and requirements, TT electronics BI Technologies offers its thin film resistor networks on both silicon and ceramic substrates. The S Series precision resistor networks are constructed using a silicon substrate, while the Model 660 precision thin film networks utilize a ceramic substrate. Both families of thin film networks feature isolated and bussed circuits along with a unique passivation coating to eliminate moisture concerns.

"There are benefits to both ceramic and silicon substrates-while ceramic substrates
feature superior electrical properties and long term stability, silicon substrates have more packaging options and a finer line width capability, yielding increased resistance per network," said Mike Torres, fixed film product marketing manager for BI Technologies. "By offering resistor networks using each type of technology, we are better able to meet all of our customers specific application requirements."

Additional benefits for ceramic substrates include low electrical parasitic losses, low
NRE/NRT costs and small minimum order quantities. The silicon substrates feature a lower cost in high order quantities.

Typical applications for the thin film resistor networks include instrumentation
amplifiers, precision voltage dividers, precision analog circuits, measurement bridge and low noise circuitry, ladder networks and converter applications.

The S Series networks feature a resistance range from 1Kohm to 100Kohms for the
isolated networks and 1Kohm to 30Kohms for the bussed networks. Ratio tolerance is less than ±0.05% with TCR tracking tolerances of less than ±5ppm/°C. Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to +125°C. For a copy of the datasheet, visit:

The Model 664, 667 and 668 networks feature a resistance range of 1Kohm to 100Kohms. Absolute tolerances at 25°C are to ±0.1% with TCR tracking to ±5ppm/°C. Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to +125°C.

For a copy of the datasheet, visit: http://www.bitechnologies.com/pdfs/660.pdf.

Typical pricing for the thin film resistor networks starts at $0.75 each in quantities of 1000 pieces. Lead times are from 12 to 14 weeks.
