(Multi-resistor package)
Filter (Low inductance)
High Voltage
High Frequency
Type BDS100 Series
With less than 40nH inductance and
a 100Watt power rating in an
easy-mounting 38mm x 25mm Isotop
case, the BDS100 offers high power
density over a wide range of ohmic
values (R47 – 1M0) and benefits from
10 years experience in the field.
Available in 6 resistor configurations
with 2 or 4 easy to connect terminals,
the resistors are made from quality
materials for optimum reliability and
stability with very low partial dis-
charge.
Tyco can test resistors to conform to
relevant customer specifications,
and will advise on the use of resistors
for pulse energy and high voltage
applications (HV designs available).
Resistors with alternative
terminations or flying leads are
available, and custom designs are
welcome.
This product is available via
distribution.

Heat Dissipation: Although the use of proprietary heat sinks with lower thermal resistance is
acceptable, up rating is not recommended. The use of proprietary heat sink
compound to improve thermal conductivity is essential.
