INTRODUCTION
The H series resistors are oil-filled, hermetically sealed ultra
precision resistors and are used as secondary standards for
metrology applications.
The hermetic sealing eliminates the ingress of moisture and
oxygen, while the oil acts as a thermal conductor, thus
eliminating the long-term degradation elements of unsealed
resistors, while at the same time allowing the device to
accept short periods of overload without degradation.
Vishay’s Bulk Metal
®
Foil outperforms all other resistor
technologies available today for applications that require
precision and stability. When combined with the hermetic
sealing and oil filling, the H series resistors become
the most
precise and stable resistors available.
With accuracies of 0.001 %, a resistance range from 5
Ω
to 1.84 MΩ, and long term shelf life of less than 2 ppm,
these devices are virtually secondary standards that can be
carried in sets for daily or periodic calibration of factory
measurement equipment.
The H series is available with laboratory and metrology
level precision and long-term stability with additional
in-house oriented processes such as: chip stabilization,
special TCR plotting, additional treatments for ultra
stability and special post manufacturing operations
(PMO). (Please refer to the last page)

POST MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS OR PMO FOR IMPROVED END OF LIFE
Many analog applications can include requirements for
performance under conditions of stress beyond the normal
and over extended periods of time. This calls for more than
just selecting a standard device and applying it to a circuit.
The standard device may turn out to be all that is needed but
an analysis of the projected service conditions should be
made and it may well dictate a routine of stabilization known
as post manufacturing operations or PMO. The PMO
operations that will be discussed are only applicable to Bulk
Metal Foil resistors. They stabilize Bulk Metal Foil resistors
while they are harmful to other types. Short time overload,
Document Number: 63006
Revision: 23-Mar-10
accelerated load life, and temperature cycling are the three
PMO exercises that do the most to remove the anomalies
down the road. Vishay Bulk Metal Foil resistors are
inherently stable as manufactured. These PMO exercises
are only of value on Bulk Metal Foil resistors and they
improve the performance by amounts that are small but
significant when compared to the very tight tolerances. Users
are encouraged to contact Vishay Foil applications
engineering for assistance in choosing the PMO operations
that are right for their application.

ULTRA HIGH PRECISION HERMETICALLY
SEALED RESISTORS
INTRODUCTION
The response of Vishay's hermetically sealed resistors under
variable conditions and stresses can be made better by
additional in-house oriented processes (PMO). Processes
such as short time overload, accelerated load life and
temperature cycling produce enhanced levels of accuracy,
stability and speed, offering immediate answers to many
resistor applications currently believed unsolvable, and
opens entirely new areas of design where the use of
resistors had not been considered.
APPLICATIONS INCLUDE
•
Resistance standards
•
Feedback devices for operational amplifiers
•
Precision voltage dividers
•
Meter multipliers
•
Precision bridge resistors
•
Decade voltage dividers
See table 5 for the improvement to expect in hermetically
sealed parts when calling for Vishay in-house oriented
processes (PMO).
