High Power Thick Film Chip
Resistors
The
ims
IMS Power line of thick film single side high power chip resistors is
the line to choose when stable performance at elevated power levels is required.
Robust thick film on alumina construction ensures reliability and durability.
Many combinations of termination materials are available to meet the
requirements of all common attachment methods. Sizes from .120” X .240”
to 0.620” X 0.270” are offered. A wide range of values and tolerances is
available.

A Word About Thermal Management
Care must be taken when using chip resistors capable of dissipating large
amounts of power. IMS’ power chips can dissipate large amounts of power
for their size. Because of this, thermal management is
critical.
The power
ratings listed for the chip resistors on this data sheet are measured in free
air - no heat sinking was used. Each chip handled the rated power and still
performed within its stated electrical parameters. HOWEVER, in free air at
these power ratings, the resistors can become very hot - in most cases
exceeding the melting point of 60/40 solder. Therefore, heat sinking is
essential. Depending upon the efficiency of the heat sink, rated power may
even be surpassed on these resistors.
