FEATURES
•Metal glaze on high quality ceramic with protective
overglaze
•Sulfur resistant
•Superior resistance against H2S-atmosphere than
standard Ag contacts
•Excellent stability (ΔR/R ≤ ± 0.5 % for 1000 h at 70 °C)
different environmental conditions
•High volume product suitable for commercial and special
applications
•Metal glaze on high quality ceramic
•Protective overglaze
•Lead (Pb)-free solder contacts on Ni barrier layer
•Pure tin plating provides compatibility with lead (Pb)-free
and lead containing soldering processes
•Compatible with "Restriction of the use of Hazardous
Substances" (RoHS) directive 2002/95/EC (issue 2004)
•Automotive Grade = sulfer resistant
Notes
• Ask about further value ranges
• Marking and packaging: see appropriate catalog or web pages • Power rating depends on the max. temperature at the solder point,
the component placement density and the substrate material
