New long side termination thick film chip resistors from Vishay with power rating of 1.0W

Vishay has unveiled the new series of long side termination thick film chip resistors with high power ratings to 1.0 W and high temperature cycle withstand ability in 0612 and 1218 case sizes. The RCL0612 e3 and RCL1218 e3 are AEC-Q200 Rev. C qualified and feature wide terminals that enable high power dissipation. These resistors allow a higher number of temperature cycles, thus improving solder-joint reliability for automotive electronic circuits and general-purpose applications.

The RCL e3 series features tolerances of 1 % and 5 %, TCR of ± 100 ppm/K and ± 200 ppm/K and a resistance range from 1 Ohms to 2.2 M Ohms. The resistors offer a protective overglaze and tin solder contacts on a Ni barrier layer for compatibility with lead (Pb)-free and lead-containing soldering processes. The devices are compliant to RoHS directive 2002/95/EC and halogen-free according to the IEC 61249-2-21 definition.
