New Vishay Intertechnology Thick Film, Multi-Resistance-Value Chip Resistor Arrays Supplement Thin Film Arrays

To provide an alternative to thin film arrays in applications requiring lower performance, Vishay Intertechnology introduces thick film chip resistor arrays to offer multiple resistance values in one device.

Allowing designers to lower pick-and-place costs and save board space in automotive and industrial applications, the AEC-Q200-qualified devices are available with two resistors of different values in the 0606 case size (CRAS0606), or two pairs of resistors with different values in the 0612 case size (CRAS0612 and CRAE0612).

Key Features

• The new Vishay Draloric resistor arrays are to be used as voltage dividers, operational amplifier feedback circuits, and DC/DC converter output voltage sensing.
• With resistance from 10 Ω to 1 MΩ, resistance tolerance of ± 1 % and ± 5 %, and TCR of ± 100 ppm/K and ± 200 ppm/K.
• The convex terminal arrays are available with square corners (version S) or scalloped corners (version E).
• RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, the CRAS0606, CRAS0612, and CRAE0612 feature a 50 V operating voltage and power dissipation of 0.063 W per element at +70 °C, and they operate over a temperature range of -55 °C to +155 °C.

Availability

Samples and production quantities of the thick film, multi-resistance-value resistor arrays are exclusively obtainable, with lead times of 10 weeks.
