Panasonic Automotive & Industrial Systems has recently introduced a range of anti-surge resistors benefiting from capacitive-coupled isolation for high-temperature and small size requirements. Featuring a 0402 case size and a rated power of 0.2W, ERJ-PA2 series resistors offer space savings without compromising on rated power specifications.

A high ESD voltage of 3.0kV provides very high circuit reliability. A TCR of 100ppm and a tolerance of down to ±0.5% result in very stable resistance and circuit operation.

Panasonic’s ERJ-PA2 series components benefit have been designed for a wide operating temperature range from -55 to +155°C and are suitable for use in automotive/transportation applications, industrial electronics, as well as consumer electronics. The devices are fully RoHS/REACH compliant, making them very environmentally friendly.

Stephane Ngandeu Latta, Product Manager, Panasonic Device Solutions Business Division, comments: “Our ERJ-PA2 series anti-surge resistors use a metal glaze thick film resistive element and three layers of electrodes making them very reliable. The ESD surge characteristics of the products are superior to standard metal film resistors.”
