VCS202

200 Series Vishay Foil Resistors Bulk Metal® Foil Technology Conformally Coated Precision Current Sensing Resistors with TCR of 5 ppm/°C and values down to 5 mΩ FEATURES • Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR): ± 5 ppm/°C (0 to 60 °C) (see table 1) Pb-free Available • Tolerance: to ± 0.02 % (see table 1) • Power Rating: 2 W at 25 °C RoHS* COMPLIANT • Load Life Stability: ± 0.005 % at 25 °C, 2000 hours at Rated Power • Resistance Range: 0.005 Ω to 500 Ω • Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) above 25 000 V • Non Inductive, Non Capacitive Design • Rise Time: 1.0 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 • Non Hot Spot Design • Terminal Finishes Available: Lead (Pb)-free Tin/Lead Alloy • Any value available within resistance range (e.g. 1K234) • Prototype samples available from 48 hours. For more information, please contact foil@vishay.com • For better performances, please see VCS300 series datasheet Any value available within resistance range The VCS200 Series offers resistance values as low as 5 mΩ and TCR’s as low as 5 ppm/°C with excellent long term stability. The resistors are conformally coated. The 4 terminal current sensing resistors can sustain 2 W continuously without an appreciable change in resistance (0.5 % maximum). The typical 50 % derating of the power specification associated with other technologies is not necessary. Our Application Engineering Department is available to advise and to make recommendations.
