APPLICATION INFORMATION
The power dissipation on the resistor generates a temperature rise against the local ambient, depending on the heat flow support
of the printed-circuit board (thermal resistance). The rated dissipation applies only if the permitted film temperature is not
exceeded.
These resistors do not feature a limited lifetime when operated within the permissible limits. However, resistance value drift
increasing over operating time may result in exceeding a limit acceptable to the specific application, thereby establishing a
functional lifetime. At the maximum permissible film temperature of 175 °C the useful lifetime is specified for 1000 h. The
designer may estimate the performance of the particular resistor application or set certain load and temperature limits in order to
maintain a desired stability.

DESCRIPTION
Production is strictly controlled and follows an extensive set
of instructions established for reproducibility. A
homogeneous film of metal alloy is deposited on a high grade
(96 % Al2O3) ceramic substrate and conditioned to achieve
the desired temperature coefficient. Specially designed inner
contacts are deposited on both sides. A special laser is used
to achieve the target value by smoothly cutting a meander
groove in the resistive layer without damaging the ceramics.
The resistor elements are covered by a protective coating
designed for electrical, mechanical and climatic protection.
The terminations receive a final pure tin on nickel plating.
The result of the determined production is verified by an
extensive testing procedure and optical inspection
performed on 100 % of the individual chip resistors. Only
accepted products are laid directly into the paper tape in
accordance with EN 60286-3.
ASSEMBLY
The resistors are suitable for processing on automatic SMD
assembly systems. They are suitable for automatic soldering
using wave, reflow or vapour phase as shown in
IEC 61760-1*. The encapsulation is resistant to all cleaning
solvents commonly used in the electronics industry,
including alcohols, esters and aqueous solutions. The
suitability of conformal coatings, if applied, shall be qualified
by appropriate means to ensure the long-term stability of the
whole system. The resistors are RoHS compliant; the pure
tin plating provides compatibility with lead (Pb)-free and
lead-containing soldering processes. Solderability is
specified for 2 years after production or requalification. The
permitted storage time is 20 years. The immunity of the
plating against tin whisker growth has been proven under
extensive testing.
All products comply with the GADSL (1) and the
CEFIC-EECA-EICTA (2) list of legal restrictions on
hazardous substances. This includes full compliance with
the following directives:
• 2000/53/EC End of Vehicle life Directive (ELV) and
Annex II (ELV II)
• 2002/95/EC Restriction of the use of Hazardous
Substances directive (RoHS)
• 2002/96/EC Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
Directive (WEEE)
APPROVALS
The resistors are tested in accordance with EN 140401-801
(superseding CECC 40401-801) which refers to EN 60115-1
and EN 140400. The approval is valid with regards to rated
power P70 and a temperature range of - 55 °C to 155 °C.
Approval of conformity is indicated by the CECC logo on the
package label.
Vishay BEYSCHLAG has achieved “Approval of
Manufacturer“ in accordance with EN 100114-1. The
release certificate for “Technology Approval Schedule“ in
accordance with CECC 240 001 based on EN 100114-6 is
granted for the Vishay BEYSCHLAG manufacturing process.
SPECIALS
This product family of thin film flat chip resistors is completed
by Zero Ohm Jumpers.
