Vishay Electro-Films
Thin Film Microwave Resistor
FEATURES
• Wire bondable
Product may not
be to scale
• Small chip size: 0.020 x 0.040 inches
• Microwave resistance range: 20 Ω - 1 kΩ
• Overall resistance range: 2 Ω to 20 kΩ
• Alumina substrate
The MIC resistor chips on alumina are designed with low
shunt capacitance. Most lower value resistor geometrics are
compatible with strip lines, making them ideally suited for
microwave circuits.
• Low stray capacitance: < 0.2 pF
• Resistor material: Tantalum nitride, self passivating
• Moisture resistant
These chips are manufactured using Vishay Electro-Films
(EFI) sophisticated Thin Film equipment and manufacturing
technology. The MICs are 100 % electrically tested and
visually inspected to MIL-STD-883.
• High frequency
APPLICATIONS
Vishay EFI MIC chip resistors provide excellent high-frequency response and are ideally suited for prototyping.
Typical application areas are:
• Amplifiers
• Oscillators
• Attenuators
• Couplers
• Filters
