61 Series 0.030”x0.030”
Satcon Electronics 61 series .030 x .030 Thin-film Resistor Chips are available in a wide range of resistances and
tolerances. Values are available from 1.25 ohms to 1 megohm. Center-tapped resistors are standard for values up to
500K. Applications include military and industrial hybrids, and medical, aerospace and communications equipment.
61 series resistor chips are available with either passivated nichrome or tantalum-nitride resistor metalization. Nichrome
provides excellent stability and temperature coefficient in hermetic applications while tantalum-nitride provides superior
moisture-resistance for non-hermetic applications.
