“Extending the resistance range not only allows us to conform to all DSCC qualifications, but we are now better able to meet all of our customers’ application-specific requirements,” said Gary Bleasdell, director of IRC’s thick film business unit. “Due to the extended resistance range and proven reliability of the resistors, the TMC Series devices are being specified for use in a number of high reliability applications, including military and aerospace systems, weapon systems, and aircraft and communication equipment.”
The TMC Series thick film military chip resistors are available in 1206 Mil/7, 2010 Mil/8, and 2512 Mil/9 package sizes. Power rating for the resistors is 250mW for the 1206 chip, 800mW for the 2010 resistor and 1000mW for the 2512 package size, with voltage ratings of 100V, 150V and 200V, respectively. Operating temperature ranges from -55°C to +150°C. The TMC Series thick film chip resistors are qualified to K and M characteristics.
In addition to the mil-qualified thick film resistors, IRC also offers a comprehensive line of thin film resistors military-qualified to S level specifications.
