Stackpole Improves Voltage Ratings for RNCE High Temperature High Stability Chip Resistors

Stackpole has announced it has improved the voltage ratings of its RNCE series of thin film resistors.  

The company says the RNCE series is known for its robustness, capable of withstanding higher temperatures, high moisture, and sulphur environments, while maintaining exceptional stability over its functional lifetime.  The new voltage ratings are as follows:

  • RNCE0402: 75 V working voltage
  •  RNCE0603: 100 V working voltage
  • RNCE0805: 150 V working voltage
  • RNCE1206: 200 V working voltage

Thin film chip resistors are essential in instrumentation and measurement electronics due to their performance and cost-effectiveness.  However, many thin film resistors fail to maintain stability under harsh conditions and over extended periods.  Stackpole says its RNCE series, with proprietary improvements in materials, design, and manufacturing processes, offers excellent stability, reliability, and robustness while maintaining high voltage and power ratings.
