Chip Resistors Cut Noise In A/V Apps

RNCP Series thin-film chip resistors emerge as low-cost alternatives to high-power, thick-film technology
Jan. 27, 2010
Promising reliable accuracy with a low standard TCR, the RNCP Series thin-film chip resistors emerge as low-cost alternatives to high-power, thick-film technology. They exhibit a high tolerance to harsh environments including shock, vibration, and temperature extremes. Specs include absolute tolerances ranging to 1%, a TCR of ±100 ppm/°C, 0402, 0603, 0805, and 1206 chip sizes, power ratings from 0.1W to 0.5W, and maximum working voltages from 50V to 200V. Pricing varies with size, tolerance, and resistance, approximately $1 to $10 per thousand. STACKPOLE ELECTRONICS INC., Raleigh, NC. (888) 734-7347.
