Used in applications such as charge amplifiers, high-resolution electrometers and piezo electric devices, these ultra high value chip resistors are in the 1, 2 and 5 teraohm range. The chips have stable VCRs of 100 ppm/V and TCR of 100 ppm/°C. Sizes range from 0.020" x 0.020" for the 0202 to 0.250" x 0.125" for the 2512 chip sizes, with custom sizes also available. The firm also manufactures leaded resistors with ultra-high resistive values of up to 10 teraohms.
