The HVC series from Stackpole is a thick film surface mount chip resistor series designed for high voltage handling and high resistance value. The working voltages for several chip sizes have now been improved: the 1206 size now is rated at 1500V, the 2010 is now 2000V and the 2512 is now 3000V.

Stackpole announces the release of the MLFA Series of AEC-Q200 qualified precision metal film melf resistors. AEC-Q200 has become an important passive component qualification standard for a variety of industries and end products and is no longer merely an automotive requirement.

Stackpole Electronics has announced that its CSRF series of SMD current sense resistors is now available in resistances down to 5mΩ in an 0402 chip size. This low resistance value, combined with the small package size, enables efficiency improvements in small portable electronic devices and potential downsizing of existing designs.

Stackpole has revealed that its HCS high current SMD shunt resistors are now available in a 0.2mΩ resistance value in chip sizes of 3920 and 5930. The HCS has an all metal welded construction with a raised resistance element which provides more efficient thermal conduction, allowing the HCS to handle higher currents with lower self-heating compared to comparable flat chips.

  Stackpole Electronics has announced that its CSSH2512 3W current sense chip has now been qualified to AEC-Q200. The CSSH2512 offers resistance values from 0.5 up to 10mΩ in tolerances as tight as 0.5% and TCR as low as 25ppm.

Stackpole's BR series is a radial leaded thru hole current sense resistor series offering power ratings up to 5W. The BR series elevates the resistive element off of the board for maximum cooling into the ambient air and minimising the amount of heat that must be dealt with at the board level.

Stackpole's RPC Series of anti-surge chip resistors is now AEC-Q200 qualified for 1% tolerances and wider. Along with providing top notch pulse handling, the AEC qualification provides additional assurance to designers that the RPC Series is able to pass the stringent electrical and environmental requirements set forth by the AEC standard.

The HCS series from Stackpole now includes an 0.2mΩ resistance value in the 3920 and 5930 chip sizes. This extremely low resistance value allows higher power current sensing with greater efficiency. In addition, the all-metal raised element means lower PCB temperatures due to increased convection under the part. The HCS typically runs 15 to 30°C cooler than comparable sized flat chips.

Resistant to the effects of both sulfur and moisture, a series of thin film precision chip resistors have been unveiled by Stackpole Electronics. While thin film nichrome resistors typically have difficulty withstanding high humidity environments under low power, Stackpole's proprietary materials and processing protects the nichrome element and performs as well under high humidity testing as much more expensive technologies such as tantalum nitri...

Stackpole has expanded its HCS series high current shunt chip resistors to include a 1206 size part rated at 2W. The HCS series combines an elevated resistive element to lower the induced heat on the PCB with low resistance values down to 0.3mΩ to achieve this outstanding performance.

The popular RNCF series from Stackpole is a thin film chip resistor series capable of outstanding precision. From sizes 0402 up to 2512 the RNCF offers 0.01% tolerances for a wide range of resistance values. The RNCF also offers TCR down to 5ppm for a significant value range for the same sizes.

Based on foil on ceramic carrier technology, the CSRF series from Stackpole offers very low resistance values and low TCR in small chip sizes. Utilising proprietary materials and manufacturing processes, Stackpole now offers a higher power rating version. Both with TCR from 75 to 200 ppm and resistance values down to 5mΩ, the CSRF0402-HP has a power rating of 0.25W and the CSRF0603-HP has a power rating of 0.5W.

  Stackpole has expanded its CSS series of current sense chip resistors to include a 0.33W rated 0603 size and a 0.5W rated 0805 size. Both offer resistance values of 5, 10, and 15mΩ in 1% tolerances and 50ppm TCR.

  Utilising high voltage power film to achieve high working voltages and high overload voltages, the ASR/ASRM series of anti-surge resistors has been released by Stackpole. The devices withstand repeated high voltage pulses of up to 10KV every 5 seconds with very little resistance shift.

  Stackpole Electronics announces the release of the RAVS series of convex termination anti-sulfur chip resistor arrays. The RAVS series utilises thick film technology with lower silver inner terminations to significantly reduce the susceptibility of the array to contamination by sulfur.

Stackpole Electronics announces its tolerance expansion for the RGC series. The thick film technology is now available in ±0.1% tolerances in chip sizes from 0603 through 2512. This development is a significant enhancement to the series that allows engineers to take advantage of precision tolerances while avoiding design challenges associated with thin film resistors, namely high moisture/humidity.

  Stackpole Electronics, has released the HCC8420 high current chassis mount shunt resistors. The HCC8420 is rated at 15W and has a resistance value of 0.1mΩ and can handle currents up to 350A. The TCR for this part is an impressive 100ppm/°C.

  A series of foil on ceramic current sense chip resistors that offers resistance values among the lowest in 0402 and 0603 chip sizes has been released by Stackpole Electronics. The CSRF series consists of the CSRF0402–HP and the CSRF0603.

Stackpole’s EWT Series of vitreous enamel coated tubular wirewounds are a good choice for high power load dump applications. The EWT Series is available in power ratings from 12 watts up to 1300 watts and the vitreous enamel coating withstands temperatures of up to 500C.

The RAF Series from Stackpole is a small size chip resistor array consisting of two or four isolated 0201 equivalent resistors in a single rectangular shaped chip with no scallops or holes. By removing the scallops that chip arrays usually have, the substrate becomes less complex and less expensive.
