PCAN Series of Thin-Film Chip Resistors

By Vishay/Thin Film 116

PCAN Series of Thin-Film Chip Resistors

Vishay's PCAN series chip resistors are designed on aluminum nitride ceramic substrates with enlarged backside terminations to reduce the thermal resistance between the topside resistor layer and the solder joint on the end user's circuit assembly.

Actual power-handling capability is limited by the end-user mounting process. As with any high-power chip resistor, the ability to remove the heat is critical to the overall performance of the device.
