Product Overview
The datasheet presents the SASSSATION 3 0603 range of thick film chip resistors by State of the Art, Inc. These are standard grade resistors featuring wraparound termination and are made of 96% alumina. They are designed for various applications requiring reliable resistance and stability.
Performance Characteristics
The resistors cover a resistance range of 10 ohms to 40 megaohms, with tolerances of 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 5%, and 10%. Temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) values span from +100 to +300 ppm/°C, indicating the resistor’s resistance change with temperature variations. The maximum power dissipation of these resistors is 100 milliwatts, and they can operate at a maximum voltage of 45 volts. Additionally, the datasheet specifies current noise and power dissipation values for different resistor sizes.
Environmental Performance
The chip resistors excel in tests such as thermal shock, low temperature operation, short-time overload, resistance to soldering heat, moisture resistance, and high-temperature exposure, typically changing resistance by only +0.03% to +0.05%. A life test shows a derating limit of 7% over 250,000 hours.
Part Numbering System
The datasheet provides a detailed part numbering guide for ordering. The guide includes information on packaging code, temperature characteristic, tolerance, resistance value notation, termination finish, product designation, termination type, size code, and performance grade. For example, a specified tolerance of 2% is represented by the character ‘G’, while a resistance value of 5.6 ohms is denoted as ‘5R6’.
Mechanical Data
The resistor’s dimensions are provided in both inches and millimeters, giving details about length, width, thickness, terminal gap, and approximate weight. The recommended minimum mounting pad size is also included to facilitate the correct installation of the resistor onto a circuit board.
