DESCRIPTION
Production is strictly controlled and follows an extensive
set of instructions established for reproducibility. A
homogeneous and dense carbon film is deposited on a high
grade ceramic body (85 % Al2O3) and conditioned to
achieve the desired temperature coefficient. Nickel plated
steel termination caps are firmly pressed on the rods. A
special laser is used to achieve the target value by smoothly
cutting a helical groove in the resistive layer without
damaging the ceramics. Connecting wires of electrolytic
copper plated with 100 % tin are welded to the termination
caps. The resistors are covered by protective coating
designed for electrical, mechanical and climatic protection.
Five color code rings designate the resistance value and
tolerance in accordance with IEC 60062 (1).
The result of the determined production is verified by an
extensive testing procedure performed on 100 % of the
individual resistors. Only accepted products are stuck
directly on the adhesive tapes in accordance with
IEC 60286-1.
ASSEMBLY
The resistors are suitable for processing on automatic
insertion equipment and cutting and bending machines.
Excellent solderability is proven, even after extended
storage. They are suitable for automatic soldering using
wave or dipping. The encapsulation is resistant to all
cleaning solvents (3) commonly used in the electronics
industry, including alcohols, esters and aqueous solutions.
The suitability of conformal coatings, potting compounds
and their processes, if applied, shall be qualified by
appropriate means to ensure the long-term stability of the
whole system. The resistors are completely lead (Pb)-free,
the pure tin plating provides compatibility with lead (Pb)-free
and lead-containing soldering processes. The immunity of
the plating against tin whisker growth has been proven
under extensive testing.
