INTRODUCTION
The 2R, 3R, 4R Resistor Networks are the designers’
first choice for ultra high precision, stable and reliable
Voltage Divider or Network.
The Z Foil Technology provides a significant reduction
of the resistive component’s sensitivity to ambient
temperature variations (TCR) and applied power changes,
self-heating (PCR). Absolute TCR of 0.2 ppm/°C typical
removes errors due to temperature gradients.
The availability of low absolute TCR and low PCR,
provides a good cost solution for the variability of other
components when compiling the total error budget.
The four fundamental factors determining how “ideal”
a precision divider and network will be:
APPLICATIONS
• Instrumentation amplifiers
• Bridge networks
• Differential amplifiers

(Z Foil Technology)
1. Initial tolerance, or how close to nominal value the
resistors can be made.
2. Initial ratio matching – or how accurately a specified
ratio among resistors will be achieved.
3. Tracking in operation – or how precisely the initial ratios
are maintained under a wide range of operating
conditions (temperature, humidity, load, etc.)
4. Fast response without ringing – or ability of the divider,
network to react to rapid switching without blocking the
circuit. This depends on the inductance and
capacitance of the network, as well as of the individual
resistors in the network.
The 2R, 3R, 4R with the Z Foil technology is designed and
manufactured to eliminate the inter-parameter compromise
inherent in all other types of precision resistors. All
important characteristics – tolerance, long term shelf
life and load stability, temperature coefficient, noise,
capacitance and inductance – are optimum, approaching
in total performances the theoretical ideal, straight wire.
The 2R, 3R, 4R (Z Foil) maintain all their design, physical
and electrical characteristics. These factors are both
measurable and predictable before, during and after
manufacture.
This could not be accomplished with high TCR resistors,
even with good tracking.
Our application engineering department is available to
advise and make recommendations. For non-standard
technical requirements and special applications. Please
contact us.
POST MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS
OR PMO
Military 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 resistor technologies. Short time
overload, accelerated load life, and temperature cycling
are the three PMO exercises that do the most to remove
the anomalies down the road. 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 small but significant
amounts. Users are encouraged to contact the Vishay
Foil Resistors application engineering department for
assistance in choosing the PMO operations that are right
for their application.
WHY IS THE ABSOLUTE TCR OF EACH
RESISTOR MORE IMPORTANT THE INITIAL
TCR TRACKING?
Depending on technology differences, some resistors may
increase in value with an increase in temperature (+TCR)
while others will decrease in value with an increase in
temperature (–TCR), or, they may not change in value at
the same rate. Other temperature effects, such as self
heating due to the application of power can add to the
ambient temperature effects. An example of these effects
can be seen where two resistors with different TCR
characteristics are used around an operation amplifier.
The amplification ratio will be affected by the differential
TCR of the resistors and will be compounded by the self
heating effects of the I
2
R differences of the feedback vs.
the sense resistor. Good design practice would be to use
fundamentally low TCR networks in this application since
this would minimize both varying temperature and self
heating effects.

Note
To acquire a precision resistance value,
the Bulk Metal
®
Foil chip is trimmed by
selectively removing built-in “shorting bars.”
To increase the resistance in known increments,
marked areas are cut, producing progressively
smaller increases in resistance. This method
reduces the effect of “hot spots” and improves
the long-term stability of Bulk Metal Foil resistors.
