Notes
• Consult factory for availability of additional case sizes
(1) The power rating depends on the maximum temperature of the resistive element. The temperature of the resistive element and adjacent
materials will rise due to the power dissipation of the resistor. The majority of this heat/energy is dissipated by conduction through the
substrate, terminations, solder joints, and printed circuit board. The maximum power rating in a particular application only applies if the
temperature of the resistive element is maintained at or below 155 °C
