POWER METAL PLATE
™
CURRENT SENSE RESISTOR
• Power Metal Plate
™
current sense element provides
superior pulse performance and superior pulse tolerance
• Low resistance values; minimizes power loss and
prevents parallel resistance elements
• Low TCR; better temperature stability
• Tight tolerance; improves measurement accuracy
AUTOMOTIVE
GRADE
All metal construction provides lower CTE mismatch
with PCB as compared to ceramic.
• Lowers solder joint stress
• Improves reliability
Higher resistance values in a single high power
resistor can replace multiple series devices at
lower ohmic values.
• Reduces measurement errors
• Saves PCB space
• Reduces solder joint reliability issues
0.5 mΩ to 10 mΩ 3 W
Higher resistance values (up to 0.5 Ω) enables a single high
power resistor to replace multiple devices in series.
Saves PCB board space and reduces measurement errors.
