Vishay Debuts DSM Series SMT Foil Resistors


New Products Jul 17, 2003 by Jeff Shepard

Vishay Intertechnology Inc. (Malvern, PA) announced the release of the DSM Series of ultra-precision, surface-mount, resistor dividers, which integrate a matched pair of Bulk Metal® Foil resistors featuring stability and industry-leading TCR performance with absolute values of 5ppm/°C and tracking values of 1ppm/°C or better.

The new resistor dividers incorporate a two-resistor, three-terminal, resistor network in a compact molded, epoxy package measuring 0.16in x 0.106in (4mm x 2.7mm). The devices also offer a high stability of 0.01% at 0.05W, 70°C over 2,000 hours, a tight resistance-ratio tolerance as low as ±0.01%, an absolute tolerance of 0.02%, a power rating of 0.1W for the entire package at 70°C a rating of 0.05W per resistor, and an operating temperature range of -65°C to +150°C.

Available in bulk-pack or tape-and-reel packaging, samples and production quantities of the DSM Series resistors are available now. Lead time for production quantities is approximately 12 weeks. Pricing for delivery only in 100-piece quantities starts at $6.95.
