Product Specialist:Sales:
Roger Tall Debbie Rowland

We design and manufacture resistors and precision resistor networks. We are recognised as being an innovative leader in the design, development and manufacture of resistors since the very beginning of the electronics industry. We are trusted by designers to provide custom solutions for critical applications from space flight controllers to medical defibrillators.

LRMAN1225-IRC

LRMAN1225 is an inverse format metal alloy current sense resistor. It complements the existing range of inverse format parts in 0612 and 0815 size and provides a power rating of 3W.

With values down to 2mΩ, this product provides a useful alternative to thick film on ceramic types for applications where high current surges are possible, or where TCR must be restricted to ±100ppm/°C.

Applications:

  • Power supplies
  • Small motor control
  • DC-DC convertors

Features:

  • Power rating 3W
  • Values down to R002
  • TCR ±100ppm/°C
  • High pulse handling capability

Benefits

  • Inverse format is more robust under conditions of thermal cycling or board flexing, leading to lower cost of field failures
  • Surge tolerant resistor enhances reliability and reduces field failures in applications exposed to electrical surges

TT Electronics, a global provider of engineered electronics for performance critical applications, has launched the QSOP-C and SOIC-C high-density resistor networks that combine high precision with stability and reliability. By using a ceramic substrate and a relatively large feature size, they offer better cross-talk performance than types based on silicon substrates.

With target markets in the aerospace, medical and industrial areas, the parts are aimed at designers of analogue circuits such as amplifiers and ADCs requiring accurate gain and threshold levels defined by resistance ratios, where the operating temperature range is wide, humidity levels may be high, reliability level is paramount and periodic recalibration is not possible.

TT Electronics' QSOP-C and SOIC-C series resistor networks are particularly beneficial for use in aerospace and high reliability signal processing applications, as the parts are optionally available with thermal shock screening. Specific applications include flight computers, medical monitors and critical process monitors.

Factors driving the demand for these types of components are the use of COTs passive devices in the aerospace sector, and rising operating frequencies making low crosstalk a more important feature.

The use of Tantalum Nitride film technology makes the QSOP-C and SOIC-C series resistor networks ultra-reliable as an inherently moisture-proof film system, and their ceramic based element offers lower crosstalk than silicon based alternatives. Reducing the PCB area required, up to 23 resistors are available in a single component.

The QSOP-C series feature a high resistor density with .025" lead spacing, and are available in standard JEDEC 16, 20, and 24 pin packages. The 24-pin version measures 8.66 x 6.02 mm including leads. Resistor ranges of 100R to 150K are available. The SOIC series are available in narrow and wide body versions in standard JEDEC 8, 14, 16, and 20 pin packages. 100R to 200K resistance ranges are available.

Both series share an operating temperature range of -55 to +125 degrees C and with precision figures of +/- 15ppm per degree C TCR (temperature coefficient of resistance) tracking, and +/- 0.05 % ratio tolerance, the resistors consume a smaller amount of the designer's error budget.
