High energy double sided chip resistor, boosts surge performance

TT ELECTRONICS HDSC high energy double sided chip (HDSC) resistors are untrimmed for improved pulse performance, enhances reliability and reduces field failures in applications exposed to electrical surges, critical factors in industrial and medical applications. Devices are well-suited for replacement of large chip or multiple chip solutions used to achieve pulse withstanding. Designers can reduce size and weight whilst increasing surge protection for EMC regulatory compliance and product reliability. Device’s small footprint for given ratings saves pcb area. Available in four sizes from 0805 to 2512 and withstand up to 6.5kV peak for a 1.2/50µs surge and up to 6kW for a 0.1ms pulse.
