High voltage chip resistors deliver low VCR

Stackpole Electronic's RVCU high-voltage chip resistors are designed for high-voltage applications that demand precise measurements. Unlike many high-voltage resistors that lack a specified VCR, which can greatly impact accuracy in voltage divider applications,

These resistors offer a VCR of 25ppm to 50ppm, depending on the resistance value. This reduces measurement errors to 2.5% to 5% over a 1000V change, compared to the 20% to 30% error seen with resistors having VCRs of 200pp to 300ppm.

The resistors feature a working voltage range from 800V in the 1206 size to 3000V in the 2512 size, which is substantially higher than the typical voltage rating of most chip resistors of similar sizes. Additionally, AEC-compliant RVCU resistors are available with tolerances as low as 0.5% and a TCR of 100 ppm. Their robust, anti-sulfur structure meets the IEC 62368 requirements for audio/visual and communications equipment, with resistance values ranging from 75Ω to 27MΩ.

The RVCU series is an exceptional choice for commercial high-voltage LED lighting, medical devices, audio and video equipment, communications systems, test and measurement equipment, and voltage dividers for high-voltage transmission and control.
