DESCRIPTION
Production of the CMA 0204 specialty MELF resistors with
advanced pulse load capability is strictly controlled and
follows an extensive set of instructions established for
reproducibility. A homogeneous and dense carbon film is
deposited on a high grade ceramic body (85 % Al
2
O
3
).
Nickel plated steel termination caps are firmly pressed on
the coated rods. A special laser is used to achieve the target
value by smoothly cutting a helical groove in the resistive
layer without damaging the ceramics. The resistors are
covered by protective coating designed for electrical,
mechanical and climatic protection.The terminations receive
a final pure matte tin on nickel plating. Four color code rings
designate the resistance value and tolerance in accordance
with IEC 60062
(1)
.
The result of the determined production is verified by an
extensive testing procedure performed on 100 % of the
individual resistors. Only accepted products are laid directly
into the blister tape in accordance with IEC
60286-3,
Type 2a
(1)
.
ASSEMBLY
The resistors are suitable for processing on automatic SMD
assembly systems. They are suitable for automatic
soldering using wave, reflow or vapor phase as shown in
IEC 61760-1
(1)
. Solderability is specified for 2 years after
production or requalification, however, excellent
solderability is proven after extended storage in excess of
10 years. The permitted storage time is 20 years.
The resistors are completely lead (Pb)-free, the pure matte
tin plating provides compatibility with lead (Pb)-free
soldering processes. The immunity of the plating against tin
whisker growth has been proven under extensive testing.
The encapsulation is resistant to all cleaning solvents
commonly used in the electronics industry, including
alcohols, esters and aqueous solutions. The suitability of
conformal coatings, potting compounds and their
processes, if applied, shall be qualified by appropriate
means to ensure the long-term stability of the whole system.
