Vishay PLT thin film resistor series

Vishay has enhanced its PLT series of precision low-TCR thin film resistors with improved tolerances down to ±0.01%. The devices feature a low standard TCR of ±5 ppm/°C over a wide temperature range of -55 to +125°C.

With stable film and performance characteristics of 500 ppm at +70°C for 10,000 hours, devices in the PLT series are optimised for high-precision applications in industrial, telecommunications, medical imaging, test and measurement, and military and aerospace equipment and instrumentation.

Offered in 0603, 0805, and 1206 case sizes, the series has a resistance range from 250 Ω to 100 kΩ, with non-standard values available. The resistors features low noise of <-30 dB, low voltage coefficients of 0.1 ppm/V and power ratings from 150 to 400 mW at +70°C.

Available with lead-free or lead terminations, the resistors are compliant with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, halogen free according to IEC 61249-2-21, and flame resistant in accordance to UL 94 V-0.
