High power pulse withstanding chip resistor improves power rating
Recently introduced by global manufacturer of resistors, Stackpole, the RPC0603-HP is a high power pulse withstanding chip resistor with significantly more pulse power than a standard 0603 size chip resistor. The power rating for this part has been increased to 0.25W. In addition, the working voltage for the RPC0603-HP is 75V with an overload voltage of 150V.
The expansion further enhances the RPC higher power capability beyond the recent additions of the RPC0805, UP rated at 0.5W and RPC1206, UP rated at 0.75W. This improved performance allows the RPC to be used in applications normally requiring a larger resistor such as downsizing and smaller size requirements for consumer electronics and power control.
Pricing for the RPC0603-HP depends on resistance value, and tolerance and ranges from $0.0375 to $0.05 each in full package quantities.
