The full power rating of Power Metal Strip resistors are dependent upon the ability of the circuit board to dissipate the heat energy created in the resistance element. It is recommended to follow common design practices for power semiconductors that ensure the junction temperature is maintained with in thermal limits by using large pad surfaces, thermal vFEATURES
● Power Metal Strip® all-welded construction is ideal for all types of current sensing, voltage division, and pulse applications● Solid metal nickel-chrome, manganese-copper, or manganese-copper-tin alloy resistive element with low TCR (< 20 ppm/°C)
● Proprietary processing technique produces extremely low resistance values, down to 0.0003
● Sulfur resistance by construction that is unaffected by high sulfur environments
● Very low inductance (< 2 nH)
● Low thermal EMF (< 3 μV/°C)
● AEC-Q200 qualified (1)
● Material categorization: for definitions of compliance please see Notes
● Follow link to “Overview of Automotive Grade Products” for more details: (1) Flame retardance test may not be applicable to some resistor technologies STANDARD
