AEC-Q200 compliant surface-mount precision current-sense resistors

Stackpole's CSS Series surface-mount precision current sense all metal construction resistors are now AEC-Q200 qualification for all sizes. The established series is known for outstandingly low TCR down to ±25 ppm, tolerances down to ±0.5%, and resistance values as low as 0.25mohm. As per AEC-Q200, the resistors must have an operating temperature range of -55C to +150C and survive a wide range of electrical and mechanical stress tests including exposure to high temperatures, temperature cycling, high temperature operational life, biased humidity, ESD, board flex, and terminal strength. Components qualified to AEC-Q200 provide engineers additional assurance that they are designing in a robust and reliable component, says the company.
