S Series
Vishay Foil Resistors
High Precision Foil Resistor with TCR of ± 2.0 ppm/°C,
Tolerance of ± 0.005 % and Load Life Stability of ± 0.005 %
FEATURES
INTRODUCTION
Bulk Metal® Foil (BMF) technology outperforms all other
resistor technologies available today for applications that
require high precision and high stability.
This technology has been pioneered and developed by
Vishay Foil Resistors (VFR), and products based on this
technology are the most suitable for a wide range of
applications. BMF technology allows the production of
customer-oriented products, designed to satisfy specific
challenging technical requirements.
The S series of BMF resistors offers low TCR, excellent load
life stability, tight tolerance, fast response time, low current
noise, low thermal EMF and low voltage coefficient, all in one
resistor.
The S series is virtually insensitive to destabillizing factors.
The resistor element is a solid alloy that displays the
desirable bulk properties of its parent material, thus it is
inherently stable and noise free. The standard design of
these resistors provides a unique combination of
characteristics found in no other single resistor.
• Temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR):
- 55 °C to + 125 °C, 25 °C ref.
- S10XC / D series: ± 2 ppm/°C typical (see table
1)
- S10XK series: ± 1 ppm/°C typical (see table 1)
• Power rating: to 1 W at + 125 °C
• Resistance tolerance: to ± 0.005 % (50 ppm)
• Load life stability: ± 0.005 % at 70 °C, 2000 h at rated power
• Resistance range: 0.5 Ω to 1 MΩ (for higher or lower
values, please contact Application Engineering)
• Vishay Foil resistors are not restricted to standard values;
specific “as required” values can be supplied at no extra
cost or delivery (e.g. 1K2345 vs. 1K)
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) at least to 25 kV
• Non inductive, non capacitive design
• Rise time: 1 ns effectively no ringing
• Current noise: 0.010 µVRMS/V of applied voltage (< - 40 dB)
• Thermal EMF: 0.05 µV/°C
• Voltage coefficient: < 0.1 ppm/V
• Low inductance: < 0.08 µH
• Non hot-spot design
• Terminal finishes available: lead (Pb)-free, tin/lead alloy
• Matched sets are available on request
(TCR tracking: to 0.5 ppm/°C)
• Prototype quantities available in just 5 working days
or sooner. For more information, please contact
foil@vishaypg.com
• For better TCR performances please review the
datasheets for the Z Series and Z203
VFR's application engineering department is available to
advise and to make recommendations. For non-standard
technical requirements and special applications, please

CONDITIONS
A. Standard Test Operations:
By 100 % Inspection
•
Short-time overload (6.25 x rated power for 5 s)
•
Resistance - tolerance check
• Visual and mechanical
By Sample Inspection
•
TCR
•
Environmental tests per table 3 on a quarterly basis to
establish performance by similarity
B. Standard Test Conditions:
•
Lead test point: 0.5" (12.7 mm) from resistor body
•
Temperature: + 23 °C ± 2 °C
•
Relative humidity: per MIL-STD-202
IMPROVED PERFORMANCE TESTING (IPT)
The preceding information is based on product directly off
the production line. Improved performance (meaning
increased time stability with load and other stresses) is
available through factory conducted “Improved Performance
Testing”. The test routine is usually tailored to the user’s
stability objectives and IPT-processed resistors can exhibit
improved load-life stability levels of less than 50 ppm.
Various screen test routines are available and all anticipated
stresses must be taken into account before settling on one
specific test routine. VFR's application engineering
department is prepared to discuss and recommend
appropriate routines given the full spectrum of anticipated
stresses and stability requirements.
