5W surface mount resistor from Ohmite
A 5 watt version of its already popular FCSL metal foil current sense resistor range has been launched by Ohmite. The use of foil construction gives the FCSL the effective combination of very low and stable TCRs. It is available in a wide selection of very low ohmic values.
Occupying the same industry standard sized surface mount footprint as the original components, the FCSL110 is available with resistance values as low as 0.001 ohms. Another new feature of the FCSL110 is the addition of side and back electrodes which ensure better solder joint attachment and easier inspection of solder joint integrity. Having a high resistance to heat, the resistors have an ambient operating temperature of -55°C to +155°C making them ideal for low heat electromotive use
Standard, stocked resistance values and tolerances are 5W 0.001 ohms at 5%, 0.002 ohms at 2%, 0.005, 0.010, 0.025 and 0.050 ohms at 1%. FCSL110 will be sold on tape and reel only, with 1000 pieces contained on 24mm wide tape.
