INTRODUCTION
Bulk Metal
®
Foil (BMF) technology outperforms all other
resistor technologies available today for applications that
require high precision and high stability.
This technology has been pioneered and developed by
Vishay Foil Resistors (VFR), and products based on this
technology are the most suitable for a wide range of
applications. BMF technology allows the production of
customer-oriented products, designed to satisfy specific
challenging technical requirements.
The RCK series of BMF resistors offers low TCR, excellent
load life stability, tight tolerance, fast response time, low
current noise, low thermal EMF and low voltage coefficient,
all in one resistor.
The RCK series is virtually insensitive to destabillizing
factors. The resistor element is a solid alloy that displays the
desirable bulk properties of its parent material, thus it is
inherently stable and noise free. The standard design of
these resistors provides a unique combination of
characteristics found in no other single resistor.
VFR's application engineering department is available to
advise and to make recommendations. For non-standard
technical requirements and special applications, please

foil@vishaypg.com.

CONDITIONS
A. Standard Test Operations:
By 100 % Inspection
•
•
Short-time overload (6.25 x rated power for 5 s)
Resistance - tolerance check
IMPROVED PERFORMANCE TESTING (IPT)
The preceding information is based on product directly off
the production line. Improved performance (meaning
increased time stability with load and other stresses) is
available through factory conducted “Improved Performance
Testing”. The test routine is usually tailored to the user’s
stability objectives and IPT-processed resistors can exhibit
improved load-life stability levels of less than 50 ppm.
Various screen test routines are available and all anticipated
stresses must be taken into account before settling on one
specific test routine. VFR's application engineering
department is prepared to discuss and recommend
appropriate routines given the full spectrum of anticipated
stresses and stability requirements.
