APPLICATION INFORMATION
When the resistor dissipates power, a temperature rise above the ambient temperature occurs, dependent on the thermal
resistance of the assembled resistor together with the printed circuit board. The rated dissipation applies only if the permitted
film temperature is not exceeded.
These resistors do not feature a limited lifetime when operated within the permissible limits. However, resistance value drift
increasing over operating time may result in exceeding a limit acceptable to the specific application, thereby establishing a
functional lifetime.

DESCRIPTION
Production is strictly controlled and follows an extensive set
of instructions established for reproducibility. A Vishay
Green cermet film layer and a glass-over are deposited on a
high grade (Al
2
O
3
) ceramic substrate with its prepared inner
Vishay Green contacts. A special laser is used to achieve the
target value by smoothly fine trimming the resistive layer
without damaging the ceramics. The resistor elements are
covered by a protective coating designed for electrical,
mechanical and climatic protection. The terminations
receive a final pure tin on nickel plating.
The result of the determined production is verified by an
extensive testing procedure on 100 % of the individual chip
resistors. Only accepted products are laid directly into
the tape in accordance with
IEC 60286-3 Type 1a.

(4)
for its
supply chain
The products do not contain any of the banned
substances as per IEC 62474, GADSL, or the SVHC list,
see
www.vishay.com/how/leadfree.
Hence the products fully comply with the following
directives:
• 2000/53/EC End-of-Life Vehicle Directive (ELV) and
Annex II (ELV II)
• 2011/65/EU Restriction of the Use of Hazardous
Substances

• 2012/19/EU Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Directive (WEEE)
Vishay pursues the elimination of conflict minerals from its
supply chain, see the Conflict Minerals Policy at
www.vishay.com/doc?49037.
ASSEMBLY
The resistors are suitable for processing on automatic SMD
assembly systems. They are suitable for automatic
soldering using wave, reflow or vapor phase as shown in
IEC 61760-1
(1)
. The encapsulation is resistant to all
cleaning solvents commonly used in the electronics
industry, including alcohols, esters and aqueous solutions.
The suitability of conformal coatings, potting compounds
and their processes, if applied, shall be qualified by
appropriate means to ensure the long-term stability of the
whole system.
The resistors are fully RoHS-compliant, the pure tin plating
provides
compatibility
with
lead
(Pb)-free
and
lead-containing soldering processes. Solderability is
specified for 2 years after production or requalification. The
permitted storage time is 20 years. The immunity of the
plating against tin whisker growth has been proven under
extensive testing.
APPROVALS
Where applicable, the resistors are tested in accordance
with
EN 140401-802
which refers to
EN 60115-1,
EN 60115-8
and the variety of environmental test
procedures of the
IEC 60068
(1)
series.

TESTS AND REQUIREMENTS
All executed tests are carried out in accordance with the
following specifications:
EN 60115-1, generic specification
EN 60115-8, sectional specification
EN 140401-802, detail specification
IEC 60068-2-xx, test methods
The parameters stated in the Test Procedures and
Requirements table are based on the required tests and
permitted limits of EN 140401-802. The table presents only
the most important tests, for the full test schedule refer to
the documents listed above. However, some additional
tests and a number of improvements against those
minimum requirements have been included.
The testing also covers most of the requirements specified
by EIA/IS-703 and JIS-C-5201-1.
The tests are carried out under standard atmospheric
conditions in accordance with IEC 60068-1, 4.3, whereupon
the following values are applied:
Temperature: 15 °C to 35 °C
Relative humidity: 25 % to 75 %
Air pressure: 86 kPa to 106 kPa (860 mbar to 1060 mbar).
A climatic category LCT / UCT / 56 is applied, defined by the
lower category temperature (LCT), the upper category
temperature (UCT), and the duration of exposure in the
damp heat, steady state test (56 days). The components are
mounted for testing on boards in accordance with EN
60115-8, 2.4.2 unless otherwise specified.
