AEC-Q200 qualified, thick film chip resistors reduce component count

Available in five compact case sizes, the Vishay Techno CRMA series is available from Vishay Intertechnology.

The series of AEC-Q200 qualified, medium voltage thick film chip resistors are designed to save space and lower component counts in automotive and industrial applications. The Vishay Techno CRMA series devices offer high working voltages up to 1415V in compact case sizes ranging from 1206 to 2512.

The thick film resistors deliver higher voltage capabilities than standard thick film chip resistors, says Vishay. This makes them suitable for battery management and over-voltage protection in electric vehicles and for voltage monitoring and regulation in power inverters, high voltage power supplies, defibrillators, and smart circuit breakers.

CRMA series resistors offer a wide resistance range from 150-Ohm to 75MOhm, tolerances down to ±0.5 per cent, temperature co-efficients of ±100 ppm/degree C, and power ratings from 0.30 to 1.0W.

The resistors are available with solder-coated nickel barrier or solder-coated non-magnetic terminations in three-side wraparound or top-only flip chip configurations.

Samples and production quantities of the CRMA series are available now, with lead times of eight to 10 weeks.

Vishay Intertechnology is a manufacturer of discrete semiconductors (diodes, MOSFETs, and infra red optoelectronics) and passive electronic components (resistors, inductors, and capacitors). These components are used in virtually all types of electronic devices and equipment, in the industrial, computing, automotive, consumer, telecommunications, military, aerospace, power supplies, and medical markets.
