KOA Speer Electronics has developed the new high-reliability RN73R series metal film chip resistors to meet the demanding requirements of high heat and high moisture applications. These new resistors provide improved electrolytic corrosion resistance and high stability compared to KOA’s existing RN73 thin film resistors. The RN73R offers excellent heat tolerance with an operational temperature […]
Micro-sized slide potentiometers for consumer, audio, medical, or industrial applications
TT Electronics has combined miniaturization with economy in the PSM050S-10B10KB – part of the PSM series of long-life miniature PCB mount slide potentiometers for audio, consumer, medical, and industrial applications. Available in six resistance variants ranging from 500Ω to 50kΩ, and offering linear response with better than 5% linearity tolerance, the 10mW micro miniature potentiometer […]
Thin-film chip resistors target high-precision apps
The widely used RNCF Series from Stackpole is a thin-film chip resistor series capable of outstanding precision. From sizes 0201 up to 2512 the RNCF offers 0.01% tolerances for a wide range of resistance values. The RNCF also offers TCR down to 2 ppm for a significant value range for all sizes but the 0201 […]

Ultra-broadband resistors work from dc to 20 GHz
AVX Corporation has released the new UBR Series ultra-broadband resistors. The ruggedly constructed, ultraminiature (EIA 0402, 1005 metric) ultra-broadband resistors are made with high-performance tantalum nitride (TaN) materials and utilize the company’s proprietary, automotive-qualified, glass-sandwich FLEXITERM® surface-mount technology, which provides an extra measure of protection against flexure damage during installation, as well as 100% laser trimming, which […]
High-value resistors come in EIA 0402 outline
The new HR Series high-value resistors feature a glass wafer sandwich package enabled with AVX’s proprietary, automotive- and medically-qualified FLEXITERM surface-mount termination technology in a small EIA 0402 outline. The new HR Series high-value resistors provide an extra margin against flexure damage during installation. Ruggedly constructed from high-quality materials that yield excellent performance in small […]

Relay controlled programmable attenuators span dc to 2 GHz
Pasternack, a leading provider of RF, microwave and millimeter wave products, has released a new series of relay controlled programmable attenuators. Typical applications include signal conditioning and level control, matching impedances of sources and loads and measuring the gain or loss of two-port devices. Relay Controlled Programmable Attenuators offer accurate and stable performance with very low […]
Low-leakage ESD clamping diodes protect sensors, IoT devices
New miniature (0201-size) single-line ESD-protection diodes from STMicroelectronics quickly clamp transients to a voltage as low as 7V, and handle 7A peak pulse current, to provide superior protection and design flexibility for space-constrained smart objects. This diode drops the bar with the lowest clamping voltage available at this level of capacitance and stand-off voltage. The […]
