Metal Strip Resistors Offer Power Ratings To 7W

The WSLP2726 and WSLP4026 surface-mount Power Metal Strip resistors in 2726 and 4026 case sizes combine power ratings from 5W to 7W with resistance values down to 0.5 mΩ. The components sport a four-terminal design that allows for stable resistance tolerances to 1%. They incorporate a solid metal nickel-chrome or manganese-copper alloy resistive element with a TCR of less than 20 ppm/ºC. Operating temperature range spans -65°C to +170°C. Pricing varies by application, volume, and region. VISHAY INTERTECHNOLOGY, INC., Malvern, PA. (619) 336-0860.
