± 4 ppm/°C (0 °C to + 60 °C);
± 8 ppm/°C (- 55 °C to + 125 °C, 25 °C Ref.)
•
Resistance Range: 5
Ω
to 50 kΩ
•
Tolerance: to ± 0.01 %
•
Power Rating: 0.25 W at + 70 °C; 0.125 W at + 125 °C
Any value at any tolerance available with resistance range
The VRM style is a miniaturized version of the now famous
S102C. It is made with a Bulk Metal
®
Foil element so it
retains all of the inherent performance of foil resistors. It does
not, however, have the value range, power rating, TCR or
lead spacing of the S102C. It is a size for size replacement
for certain wirewounds and finds application in situations
where size constraints dictate the use of this miniature
precision resistor.
Our Application Engineering Department is available to
advise and to make recommendations. For non-standard
technical requirements and special applications, please
