Planar terminations
*This dimension determines the number of conductors which may pass under the surface mounted device.
Construction
Thick film resistor material, overglaze and organic protection
are screen printed on a 96% alumina substrate.
Terminations
Planar (or single-sided) termination is gold and suitable for
wire-bonding; wrap around is suitable for soldering.
Adjustment
The components are adjusted to final value using a specially
developed technique, which assures optimum load stability
performance.
Solderability
Wrap-around terminations have an electroplated nickel barrier
and tin/lead solder coating, this ensures excellent ‘leach’
resistance properties and solderability. They will withstand
immersion in solder at 260°C for 30 seconds.

Application Notes
Operating Temperature Range
The chips can operate at a maximum temperature of 155°C
(see Performance Data). For soldered chips, the joint
temperature should not exceed 110°C. This condition is met
when the stated power levels at 70°C are used.
Packaging
Resistor chips are supplied taped and reeled on standard 8mm
tape to IEC 286-3.
Quantity per reel 3000 max.
Planar Terminations
Mounting
This chip resistor is ideally suited for handling by automatic
methods due to its rectangular shape and the small
dimensional tolerances. Electrical connection to a ceramic
substrate or to a printed circuit board can be made by wire
bonding (eg suffix ‘G’ in PCR0805G) or by reflow soldering of
wrap-around terminations (eg suffix ‘F’ in PCR0805F). The ‘F’
terminations provide good leach properties and ensure
reliable contact. Due to the robust construction the resistor
chip can be immersed in the solder bath for 30 seconds at
260°C. This enables the resistor to be mounted on one side
of a printed circuit and other wire-leaded components on the
other side.
Resistor chips are supplied in waffle packs.
