FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Product characterization
Standard values of nominal resistance are taken from the E96 & E24 series for resistors with a tolerance of
±5%. The values of the E24/E96 series are in accordance with “IEC publication 60063”.
Derating
The power that the resistor can dissipate depends on the operating temperature; see Fig.2
Figure 2. Maximum dissipation in percentage of rated power
As a function of the ambient temperature
MOUNTING
Due to their rectangular shapes and small tolerances, Surface Mountable Resistors are suitable for handling by
automatic placement systems.
Chip placement can be on ceramic substrates and printed-circuit boards (PCBs).
Electrical connection to the circuit is by individual soldering condition.
The end terminations guarantee a reliable contact.
SOLDERING CONDITION
The robust construction of chip resistors allows
them to be completely immersed in a solder bath
of 260°C for 10 seconds. Therefore, it is possible
to mount Surface Mount Resistors on one side of
a PCB and other discrete components on the
reverse (mixed PCBs).
Surface Mount Resistors are tested for
solderability at 235°C during 2 seconds. The test
condition for no leaching is 260°C for 30 seconds.
Typical examples of soldering processes that
provide reliable joints without any damage are
given in Fig 3.
