INTRODUCTION
• Resistance Range: 0.5 Ω to 500 Ω
• Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) above 25 000 V
• Short Time Overload ≤ 0.001 % (10 ppm)
• Non Inductive, Non Capacitive Design
• Rise Time: 1 ns without ringing
• Current Noise < - 40 dB
• Thermal EMF: 0.05 µV/°C typical
• Voltage Coefficient < 0.1 ppm/V
• Non Inductive: < 0.08 µH
The Z-Foil Technology provides a significant reduction of the
resistive component’s sensitivity to ambient temperature
variations (TCR) and applied power changes (PCR).
VPR221Z provides high rated power, excellent load life
stability , low Temperature Coefficient (TCR) and low Power
Coefficient (PCR) - all in one resistor.
0.05 ppm/°C
Absolute TCR removes error due to temperature gradients.
• Non Hot Spot Design
• Terminal Finishes available: Lead (Pb)-free
By taking advantage of the overall stability and reliability of
Vishay Bulk Metal® Z-Foil resistors, designers can
significantly reduce circuit errors and greatly improve overall
circuit performances.
