Passives

Farnell has strengthened its passive components line up by signing a global franchise agreement with Yageo, extending its existing relationship to give customers access to the full product range.

The HCSM2818 from Stackpole is only marginally larger than a standard 2,512 size chip but offers a 5W continuous power rating to maximise power handling in a given PCB area. The AEC compliant HCSM2818 offers one and five percent resistance tolerances in resistance values of four, five, ten, 15, 20, and 25 milliohms. TCR ranges from 200ppm for the four and five milliohm values to 75 ppm for the values 10 ppm and higher.

A new series of surface-mount AC line rated ceramic disc safety capacitors that are said to be the industry's first such devices to offer a Y1 rating of 500 VAC and 1500 VDC have been introduced by Vishay Intertechnology.

ACAS 0606 AT and ACAS 0612 AT precision Automotive Grade thin film chip resistor arrays from Vishay Intertechnology are now available with higher resistance ratios up to 1:100 and operating voltages up to 100 V.

Ultra-high precision chip resistors have been added to distributor RS Components’ extensive passive portfolio.

TDK Corporation has presented the new EPCOS aluminium electrolytic capacitor series B43548 with snap-in terminals. The capacitors feature an excellent maximum ripple current capability of 9.80 A (400V, 100Hz, 60°C). This makes them well suited for demanding applications in power electronics.

Stackpole has announced that it offers engineers a solution for these applications with its MLFA Series. The MLFA is an AEC-Q200 compliant MELF resistor that offers exceptional electrical and environmental performance with low thermal resistance.

In stock now at New Yorker Electronics is the new Cubisic SLP Series of Flat Pack Electrolytic Capacitors from Exxelia.

The depth and breadth of Farnell’s passive component portfolio has been extended with KOA Europe’s full range of around 2400 lines.

A new AEC-Q200 qualified NTC thermistor with PEEK-insulated, nickel-iron (NiFe) leads and a low thermal gradient has been released by Vishay Intertechnology.
