Vishay - thin film chip resistor array
New automotive precision thin film chip resistor array is tested according to AEC-Q200
Vishay Intertechnology announced the release of the ACAS 0612 AT
automotive precision thin film chip resistor array, which is tested
according to AEC-Q200 and offers a 1000-V ESD stability rating. The
device is optimized to meet new automotive industry requirements for
temperature and humidity, while offering high repeatability and stable
performance for industrial, telecommunication, and consumer electronics.
The new Vishay Beyschlag ACAS 0612 AT resistor array offers defined
tolerance matching down to 0.1% (equivalent to ±0.05%) and TCR
tracking down to 10 ppm/K (equivalent to ±5ppm/K), making it
ideally suited for precision analog circuit, voltage divider, feedback
circuit, and signal conditioning applications that require
extraordinarily stable fixed resistor ratios.
The device delivers stable performance for automotive electronics,
including engine control units, gear box controls, information, safety,
power supply, body electronics, and braking systems; industrial
electronics, such as energy management, measurement control, steering
technology, sensors, scales, and bridged and precision amplifiers;
telecommunication electronics such as display technology and base
stations; and consumer electronics including high-end audio and studio
technology.
With an absolute TCR down to ±25ppm/K, the ACAS 0612 AT features
a maximum film temperature of +155°C and a 75-V operating voltage.
The device is offered with resistance values from 47? to 150k? in two
pairs or four equal resistor values. Each resistance element is rated
to 0.1-W dissipation, up to a maximum of 0.3W per package.
The resistor array offers a low cost when compared to using four
high-precision resistors, and its small 1.5-mm by 3.2-mm package
enables the design of high-density circuits. Suitable for processing on
automatic SMD assembly systems, the new device is RoHS-compliant and
compatible with lead (Pb)-free and tin/lead (Sn/Pb) reflow and
vapor-phase soldering processes.
The ACAS 0612 AT also complies with the GADSL and the CEFIC-EECA-EICTA
list of legal restrictions on hazardous substances. This includes full
compliance with 2000/53/EC End of Vehicle life (ELV), 2000/53/EC Annex
II to End of Vehicle Life (ELV II) directives, 2002/95/EC Restriction
of the use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS), and 2002/96/EC Waste
Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE).
