TT Electronics announced these WHPC0508X, WHPC0612X, and WHPC1020X, adding extra-high-power range options to its WHPC resistor series. These resistors feature inverse geometry with terminations on the long sides which gives the WHPC chip resistor a very high thermal contact with the PCB and low thermal impedance. These resistors are ideal for compact power supply and motion control applications.
The components with such high-power density save PCB area and boost reliability by restricting the temperature rise in the component hotspot. The three new WHPC chip resistors are fully AEC-Q200 qualified and offer a wide range of values from 1R0 to 1M0 and tolerances down to 0.5%. The new products are available in 1W (WHPC0508), 1.5W (WHPC0612), and 2W (WHPC1020 chip) sizes and the body protection is resistant to all normal industrial cleaning solvents suitable for printed circuits.
Key Feature:
- Double the standard power for size Inverse terminated versions
- Small footprint
- Excellent pulse performance
