Applications that experience pulse events require special consideration for selecting resistors. General purpose thick film chip resistors have variable pulse handling depending on calibration trim length. As a result, their pulse performance can be unreliable.

New Yorker Electronics says it is now distributing the VPG Foil Resistors Ultra-High Precision Moulded Surface Mount Resistor with Z1 Foil Technology and Flexible Terminations.

A new series of metallised polypropylene AC filtering film capacitors optimised for high humidity environments has been released by Vishay Intertechnology.

Murata has continued to support ongoing engineering progression within the automotive sector with the introduction of the LQW21FT_0H series. These are small inductors with broadband impedance for in-vehicle power-over-coax (PoC) circuit of SerDes-based interfacing. The LQW21FT_0H series is compliant to AEC-Q200 and delivers a combination of both broadband impedance and high-current performance.

Murata has expanded its portfolio of Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) surface-mount chip thermistors for overheat sensing by introducing the PRF03BB541NB7RL. These thermistors are optimised for incorporation into various forms of consumer electronic products and equipment such as wearable technology, smartphone handsets and tablets.

KC-LINK with KONNEKT technology surface mount capacitors from KEMET are designed for high-efficiency and high-density power applications.

United Chemi-Con’s longest life version in its U37 grade series, the U37X Screw Terminal Aluminium Capacitor is in stock at New Yorker Electronics.

Zero ohm current jumper chip resistors provide an essential function for circuit design. They make trace routing easier for single layer PCB's, are easier to assemble in mass production and less costly than jumper wires. Some designs however require more robust current handling than general purpose thick film chip jumpers.

The new Vishay Intertechnology bidirectional symmetrical (BiSy) 2-line ESD protection diode in the compact DFN1110-3A package with wettable flanks is available at New Yorker Electronics.

Pickering Electronics has introduced a new changeover 1 Form C version of its popular Series 67 high voltage PCB reed relay that saves space and makes design simple.
