Vishay Releases New Thin Film Resistor Voltage Dividers With Tight Ratio Tolerance and Stability
Vishay released a new series of thin film, molded, dual-in-line resistor voltage dividers featuring a close ratio tolerance of ± 0.05 %, ratio stability characteristics (ΔR) of ± 0.015 % at 2,000 hours and + 70 ºC, and tight TCR tracking of ± 5 ppm/ºC. Offering higher precision than discrete SMT chips, devices in the ORNV series combine five resistors, including two voltage dividers and a reference resistor, in a 4 mm by 5 mm, eight-pin surface-mount network.
WithThe devices released today provide a resistance range from 2 kΩ to 50 kΩ with a wide ratio range. The ORNV dividers offer power ratings of 100 mW at + 70 °C per resistor, extremely low noise of < - 30 dB, low voltage coefficients of < 0.1 ppm/V, and a temperature range of – 55 °C to + 125 °C. Offering lead (Pb)-free or lead terminations, the devices are compliant with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC.
Samples of the ORNV series are available now. Production quantities will be available in Q1 2011, with lead times of eight to 10 weeks for larger orders.
