FEATURES
•4-Terminal design allows for 1 % tolerance down
to 0.001 Ω and 0.5 % tolerance down to 0.003 Ω
•Ideal for all types of precision current sensing,
voltage division and pulse applications
including switching and linear power supplies,
instruments, power amplifiers
•Proprietary processing technique produces
extremely low resistance values (down to
0.001 Ω)
•All welded construction
•Solderable terminations
•Solid metal Nickel-Chrome or Manganese-Copper alloy
resistive element with low TCR (< 20 ppm/°C)
•Very low inductance 0.5 nH to 5 nH
•Excellent frequency response to 50 MHz
•Compliant to RoHS directive 2002/95/EC
Note
• Part Marking: DALE, Value, Tolerance; due to resistor size limitations some resistance values will be marked with only the resistance value
* Pb containing terminations are not RoHS compliant, exemptions may apply
