Professional Wide Terminal Thin Film Chip Resistors
MCW AT Professional Wide Terminal Resistors are the
perfect choice for most fields of modern professional power
measurement electronics where reliability, stability, power
dissipation, and robust design is of major concern.
Besides extremely high power ratings, the MCW AT is
characterized by extraordinary temperature cycling
robustness, verified through extensive testing. Typical
applications include power electronics in automotive and
industrial appliances.

Please refer to APPLICATION INFORMATION, see below.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
When the resistor dissipates power, a temperature rise above the ambient temperature occurs, dependent on the thermal
resistance of the assembled resistor together with the printed circuit board. The rated dissipation applies only if the permitted
film temperature is not exceeded.
These resistors do not feature a limited lifetime when operated within the permissible limits. However, resistance value drift
increasing over operating time may result in exceeding a limit acceptable to the specific application, thereby establishing a
functional lifetime.
