TT electronics IRC Develops Low Resistance, High Stability Chip Resistor

ELECTRONICS: TT electronics IRC has developed a highly stable low resistance chip resistor. Designated the LRF3W-MIL Series, the chip resistors utilize high reliability thick film materials and are available with screening to MIL-PRF-55342 or customer drawing. The chip resistor package includes an uninterrupted 2-pad termination on the long sides of the resistor, maximizing thermal transfer and improving reliability.

Resistance for the LRF3W-MIL Series chip resistors ranges from 0.003 to 1.0Ω, with a rated power of 3W at 70C. Absolute TCRs are to ±100ppm/C, ±250ppm/C, and ±500ppm/C, while available absolute tolerances are to ±1, ±2, ±5 and ±10 percent. Operating temperature ranges from -55 to +150C.
