Thick film chips with 100% screened VCR for precision high voltage division

Applications, including testing equipment, instrumentation, medical devices, power inverters, and battery management systems, demand high levels of precision and stability. In high-voltage environments, however, the stability and accuracy of these systems can be compromised due to the effects of a resistor's VCR. Poor VCR can lead to resistance variations as the applied voltage changes, causing measurement errors and system instability.

Stackpole Electronic's HVCR Series resistors have been specifically developed to provide superior precision and stability in high-voltage divider, monitoring, and control applications. Unlike other low VCR chip resistors currently available, the company's HVCR resistors undergo 100% screening to guarantee their VCR remains within the specified range. This rigorous testing ensures reliability and performance under demanding conditions, making them excellent for precision applications.

The HVCR Series offers resistance values from 10MOhm to 100MOhm, with extremely low VCR, less than -5ppm/V for the 1206 package and less than -2ppm/V for the 2512 package.
