Low Ohm Thick Film Flat Chip Resistors from KOA

KOA’s UR73D-series thick film shunts are designed for current detection in power supplies, motor control and industrial automation applications. The special face down construction (mounting of the resistive element on the lower face of the component) yields low T.C.R. ratings for this series. The resistors are designed for operation from -55°C to +125°C.
By its particular construction, the contribution of electrode material and solder fillet on total T.C.R. and resistive value is minimized. The excellent electrical and thermal contact to the PCB allows higher power ratings than with conventional thick film flat chips of the same size. The face down shunts are available in sizes 0402 to 2512 and cover the ohmic range from 10 milliohm to 100 milliohm. The tolerance ±1% is standard for all values and the best T.C.R. is specified as ±100ppm/K.

The new shunt resistor series UR73D covers a range of ohmic value and T.C.R. combinations that has so far been dominated by metal plate resistor solutions. The UR73D thus offers a cost efficient approach for current sensing in the power range up to 1 Watt.
