Sulfur Resistant, Pulse Proof, High Power
Thick Film Chip Resistors
The sulfur resistant, high power thick film chip resistors
series combines the capability to stand harsh environment
operation with high power rating and excellent pulse load
performance, being the perfect choice for power
measurement electronics.
FEATURES
• Superior resistance against sulfur containing
atmosphere, according to ASTM B809-95
• Excellent pulse load capability
• Enhanced power rating
• Double sided printed resistor element
• AEC-Q200 qualified
• Material categorization: for definitions of compliance
please see www.vishay.com/doc?99912
APPLICATIONS
• Automotive
• Industrial
• Commercial
Notes
(1)
Please refer to APPLICATION INFORMATION below.
(2)
RCA0402-HP resistors feature a single side printed resistive layer only.
(3)
Specified power rating requires a thermal resistance of R
th
= 110 K/W.
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.
