Caddock Electronics Unveils MP Series TO-Style Resistors

Caddock Electronics Inc. (Riverside, CA) unveiled its new MP Series of TO-Style current-sense resistors, which offer a wide range of package options for current-sensing applications. The MP Series resistors are suitable for use in power electronics circuits where a higher voltage signal is needed due to a noisy environment, or where a minimum load is required by the circuit. The heatsink-mountable packages allow higher power dissipation in a compact design without creating excess heating inside the electronics assembly. The non-inductive design allows the TO-Style current-sense resistors to operate in high-frequency applications and switching circuits.

The MP Series TO-Style resistors feature a resistance range of 0.005 Ω to 0.009 Ω (available to ±5 percent tolerance), 0.010 Ω to 0.019 Ω (available to ±2 percent tolerance), and 0.020 Ω and above (available to ±1 percent tolerance); and current and power of up to 35 A or 25 W +25 °C case temperature (TO-126 Style); ratings of up to 40 A or 50 W +25 °C case temperature (TO-220 Style); ratings up to 60 A or 60 W +25 °C case temperature (TO-220 clip mount), and ratings up to 44 A or 100 W +25 °C case temperature (TO-247 Style).

Availability for the MP Series TO-Style resistors is a lead time of seven weeks ARO.
