IRC’s TO-220 power film resistors satisfy demanding applications for accurate and stable power resistors
housed in the convenient TO-220 case. The resistance element is isolated from the mounting tab by an
alumina ceramic layer, providing very low thermal resistance and ensuring high insulation resistance between
terminals and tab. The non-inductive design makes these products especially useful in high frequency and
high speed pulse applications.
