SMD Resistor Up To 12 Watts

Published:2011/8/30 4:22:00 Author:Amy From:SeekIC

Stackpole, a leading global supplier of resistive components including Thick and Thin Film Surface Mount resistors, recently introduced the HPC12 which is a high power handling SMD resistive device.



It is rated for 5 W of power in free air, but can address 12 W continuously with 400 lfm air movement on standard recommended solder pads with no heat sink required. Its housing offers heat transfer to the ambient air from the thick film element. The terminals are attached with high temperature solder and can withstand a full minute in a 300C bath with no degradation. In addition, the HPC12 can withstand surges of over 2000 W for pulse durations of less than 10 microseconds.

This device is suitable for industrial and commercial power supply applications, motor controls, aircraft and aerospace, remote telecom and datacom power systems, test systems for power controls and power IC’s, petroleum exploration equipment, and mining equipment, medical grade monitors, remote sensing, and wind measurement systems.
