Anti-sulfur metal film low resistance chip resistors

23-01-2023 | Stackpole | Automotive & Transport

Applications, including industrial and automotive power control, need low resistance values, high power ratings, and resistance to sulphur contamination. Thick film chip resistors are not generally sulphur resistant, particularly in higher power ratings, and many high-power resistor series do not offer values below 1-Ohm.

Stackpole Electronic’s CSRT-AS series provides low resistance values, anti-sulphur performance, and high-power ratings per package size ranging from 0.25W in the 0402 case size up to 2W in the 2512 case size.

The AEC-Q200 compliant series has outstanding precision providing tolerances as low as 0.5% and TCRs down to 50ppm. The metal film technology delivers superior environmental and electrical stability, showing less than a 1% shift under most industry standards performance tests.
