Stackpole Electronic's HCS Series of high power shunts have a robust all metal welded construction.

Stackpole Electronic's HCS Series of high power shunts have a robust all metal welded construction. The raised element structure of the HCS Series will run at least 15ºC cooler than comparable sized and rated flat chips making it suitable for temperature sensitive applications. The HCS Series offers low resistance values down to 0.3 mW for higher efficiency at high current levels. Finally, TCR for the HCS Series ranges from ±50 ppm to ±150 ppm for accurate sensing with respect to temperature without the need for a four terminal connection.

Applications:

  • Power supplies
  • Welding equipment
  • Power Tools
  • UPS Systems

The HCS Series is available in resistance values from 0.3, 0.5, and 1 mW in 3W 2512 and 5W 3920 sizes.

Pricing for the HCS Series varies with size, value, and tolerance, and ranges from $0.35 to $0.70 each in full reel quantities. Contact Stackpole or one of our franchised distributor partners for volume pricing. All sizes and resistance values are available either directly from Stackpole or through catalog distribution.
