The new HCJ series from Stackpole offers a thin-film surface-mount chip
jumper capable of handling over 20 times more current than standard types.
The current handling ranges from 6.5A for the HCJ0402 size up to 63.2A for
the HCJ2512, compared to 1A to 3A for a standard thick-film jumpers. The key
to the high current handling is the lower maximum resistance values for each
size ranging from 3 milliohms for the HCJ0402 to 0.5 milliohms for all other
sizes compared to a max resistance value of 50 milliohms for standard thick-
film jumpers.
The HCJ Series is available in chip sizes 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206, and 2512
and is 100% RoHS compliant and lead free, says the company.
