September 16, 2014 by Jeff Shepard

Stackpole's CSNL Series utilizes metal-foil technology, which allows the CSNL to offer 1% tolerances and 50 ppm TCR in resistance values down to 0.5 milliohms. The CSNL Series offers sizes of half-watt 1206, 1-Watt 2010, and 2-Watt 2512. The CSNL has excellent performance over life, temperature cycling, moisture, and short time overload with typical resistance shifts less than 0.5%.

Stackpole utilizes high speed manufacturing for the CSNL to keep manufacturing costs to a minimum. The cost effective CSNL Series is designed for a variety of power control and power management applications in products ranging from low- to high-volume consumer electronics, and a range of portable electronic devices. Pricing for the CSNL Series ranges from $0.165 each to $0.225 each in full reel quantities.
