Vishay Extends Wide Terminal Thin Film Chip Resistors With Ohmic Values Down to 1 Ohm
Vishay have announced today that it has extended its MCW 0406 AT Precision series of wide terminal thin film chip resistors with ohmic values down to 1 Ohm, the industry's lowest for such a device in the compact 0406 package. The resistors combine their low ohmic values with precision tolerance of ± 0.1 % and precision TCR of ± 25 ppm/K.
High Temperature Thermal Fuses
Above 200°C, conventional thermal fuses are relatively unreliable, especially if the working temperature is close to the fuse operating temperature. Above 240°C they are not even available, so the intelligent solution is to use the PEPI H-8 high temperature thermal fuse.
DMTL Announce High Stability, Extremely Low TCR Metal Film Resistors
DMTL announces Viking Tech’s CSR Series of metal film precision resistors that will find wide application in telecoms, medical and test and measurement instrumentation as well as automotive systems thanks to AECQ200 qualification.
Lorlin Introduce Rotary Mains Switch Handling 10 Amps For 15000 Cycles
Lorlin Electronics have announced the introduction of the RMS rotary mains switch. The RMS switch provides an on/off function and is ENEC approved with reference to EN61058 with double pole isolation and a 3mm contact gap. The switch is rated at 4A @ 250Vac and is capable of accepting an inrush current of 80A from resistive or capacitive loads.
Lorlin Announce Sealed Miniature Lock Switch
Manufactured at the Lorlin factory in the UK the WRL waterproof model is BSI tested for sealing to IP66 and IP67 with both SRL and WRL switch types offering single or double pole electrical contacts. The SRL and WRL switches may be operated by a single common key or one of up to 200 different combinations.
KOA Enhance Resistance Range For 01005-RK73B1F Thick Film Chip Resistors
KOA Speer Electronics has recently expanded the range of resistance values of their smallest size within the RK73B1F series of general-purpose thick film chip resistors. The new value range, which affects the 01005 (1F) size, has been expanded to 4.7 Ohm ~ 1M Ohm for both 2% and 5% tolerances. The RK73B1F chip resistor, which is 55% smaller than the 0201 size, features a power rating of 0.03W and a TCR up to +300ppm/°C.
Stackpole releases the SM8035 for High Energy Pulse Applications
Stackpole Electronics announces the release of the SM8035 4 watt molded SMD wirewound resistor. The robust wirewound element is able to withstand much higher surge energy than other film surge resistors. The SM8035, in a 1 ohm value for example, has the energy handling capacity of 43.3 Joules.
EMCO Announce Input Bypass Capacitor Application Note
EMCO have recently released this new Application Note focusing on the use of an input bypass capacitor. This Application Note applies to all EMCO Product Series and describes the optional use of an input bypass capacitor for improved performance.
Standex-Meder Announces RM05-8A-S Reed Relay Module For PCB Mounting
Standex-Meder Electronics announces the RM05-8A-S 8-pole PCB mount reed relay module.
