Automotive-grade chip resistors excel at handling pulses
High-reliability chip resistors can be more difficult to find and even more so when there are pulse handling requirements. Typically, the manufacturing process for thick film chip resistors allows for variation in the calibration trim, leading to variation in pulse handling performance. Stackpole’s recently released RPCA series addresses all these needs. The RPCA has limited to […]
World’s highest-power MEMS switch handles 10 A
The new MM9200 is the world’s first micromechanical power switch capable of handling 10 A in a miniature 5×5-mm surface-mount package. With its ultra-low 0.010-Ω contact resistance, the new MM9200 is said to be the lowest-loss and highest power capable micro-mechanical switch ever created. The MM9200 targets a wide range of applications including industrial automation, […]
