Stackpole Electronics, Inc. Expands Ohmic Value Range and TCR for Precision Metal Film Products
RALEIGH, NC (April 27, 2006) - Stackpole Electronics, Inc. today announced a significant expansion in the ohmic value range and TCR's for its popular RN ¼ series of metal film resistors.
For most TCR and tolerance combinations, Stackpole's ohmic value range has been extended from 1 ohm to 2.2 Mohm. For tolerances tighter than 1%, the RN ¼ series previously extended from a minimum of 30 ohms to only 1 Mohm. Stackpole now offers TCRs of 15ppm and 10ppm, where previously the tightest TCR available for the RN ¼ series was 25ppm.
Regarding the recent changes, Stackpole's Product Engineering Manager Kory Schroeder commented, "Stackpole has always been one of the leaders in standard metal film and carbon film resistors. This expansion of our precision metal film offering, along with the recent additions to our thin film chip resistor and precision wirewound offering, give Stackpole one of the broadest precision resistor offerings available."
Current lead times are seven weeks with many values in stock. Pricing is TCR and tolerance dependant, but typical pricing is from $0.08 to $0.20 each in reel quantities of 5000pcs. Bulk packaging of 1000pcs is also available.
