Vishay -AEC-Q200-qualified dual-in-line thin-film resistor networks

A new series of AEC-Q200-qualified, high-precision dual-in-line thin-film resistor networks. Has been introduced by Vishay. The AORN Series features low TCR tracking of ±5ppm/C, tight ratio tolerances to ± 0.05 %, and exceptional long-term ratio stability of 0.015% after 1,000 hours at +155C. For improved ESD and moisture protection, the resistor networks are constructed with a tantalum nitride resistor film on a high-purity alumina or ceramic substrate. AORN series devices are available in two configurations: as four equal-value resistors ranging from 1kohm to 100kohm and as two resistor dividers in the same package with ratios from 1:1 to 1:100. The resistor networks feature a rugged moulded 50 mil pitch construction and narrow (0.150 in) 8-pin SOIC packages, in accordance with JEDEC MS-012. The devices offer a typical power rating of 100mW per resistor element. The integrated construction of AORN resistor networks allows for higher precision over discrete SMT chips, making the devices ideal for precision voltage dividers, op amps, and battery management applications. Typical end products will include automotive, telecommunications, industrial, process control and medical instrumentation. Per AEC-Q200, the resistor networks are rated for ESD to 2kV at > 10kohm. The devices feature extremely low noise of <-30dB and voltage coefficients of <0.1ppm/V, and they operate over a wide temperature range of -55C to +155C. AORN series devices are RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, and they pass the sulphur resistance test per ASTM B 809, says the company.
