Thin Film Chip Resistors deliver stable performance.

Press Release Summary:




In 0402 case size, MC professional and precision series offer respective resistance values down to 10 and 100 Ω for all TCR/tolerance combinations. In 0603 case size, professional series features resistance down to 1 Ω for TCRs of ±50 ppm/K and ± 25 ppm/K with a 0.5 % tolerance. While professional series combines dissipation at 70°C to 400 mW with operating range up to +155°C, precision series offers tolerance down to ±0.1% and TCR down to ±10 ppm/K.

Vishay Intertechnology Extends Ohmic Range of MC Series Professional and Precision Thin Film Chip Resistors



Devices Offer Lower Resistance in 0402 and 0603 Case Sizes



MALVERN, Pa. — Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today announced that it has extended its MC series of professional and precision thin film chip resistors with lower ohmic values in the compact 0402 and 0603 case sizes. The enhanced devices are designed to deliver stable performance for a wide range of electronic systems.



In the 0402 case size, the professional and precision series now offer resistance down to 10 Ω and 100 Ω, respectively, for all TCR / tolerance combinations. In the 0603 case size, the professional series features lower resistance down to 1 Ω for TCRs of ± 50 ppm/K and ± 25 ppm/K with a 0.5 % tolerance.



The Vishay Beyschlag resistors are ideal for applications in which reliability and stability are a major concern, including industrial electronics such as sensors, scales, bridges, and precision amplifiers; automotive electronics including engine control units, gearbox controls, body electronics, and safety, power supply, and braking systems; battery management, measurement control, and steering technology; telecommunication base stations; and medical equipment.



Providing high-temperature performance, professional series devices combine high rated dissipation at 70 °C to 400 mW with an operating temperature to +155 °C. Offering an advanced level of stability, precision series devices offer low tolerance down to ± 0.1 % and low TCR down to ± 10 ppm/K.



MC series resistors are approved according to EN 140401-801. RoHS-compliant, the devices are suitable for processing on automatic SMD assembly systems and for automatic soldering using wave, reflow, or vapor phase.
