Chip Resistors Seek High-Rel Designs

For high-reliability applications, the company offers a line of miniature chip resistors in both thick- and thin-film types ranging in size from 0202 to 0603 with tolerances from 0.1%. Power ratings span 20 mW to 200 mW with temperature coefficients of resistance as low as 25 ppm, and voltage ratings from 15V to 50V. Operating temperature range for the resistors covers -55°C to + 125°C and a full range of termination styles (top side, wrap around, full metal back, etc.), and termination finishes (solder over nickel barrier, epoxy bondable, and wire bondable) are available. Pricing is generally under $1 each in volume. For more details, call Bernie Hoy at STATE OF THE ART INC., State College, PA. (800) 458-3401.
