NORTHVALE, NEW JERSEY – New Yorker Electronics is expanding its line of high-power resistors with the distribution of the Vishay Dale Thin Film PCAN Series of resistors. Built on aluminum nitride substrates, Vishay Dale Thin Film PCAN Series High Power Aluminum Nitride SMD Resistors offer power ratings to 6W and resistance from 2Ω to 30kΩ in 1206 and 2512 case sizes. They are optimized as snubber circuits and burden, gate load and amplifier termination resistors in industrial, military and medical applications. Other applications include power supplies, power switching and braking systems.

The PCAN series of chip resistors is designed on aluminum nitride ceramic substrates with enlarged backside terminations to reduce the thermal resistance between the topside resistor layer and the solder joint on the end users circuit assembly. Features of the thin film resistors include a resistance range up to 175Ω, tolerance to ±0.1% and TCR down to ±25ppm/C.

Actual power-handling capability is limited by the end-user mounting process. As with any high-power chip resistor, the ability to remove the heat is critical to the overall performance of the device.

FEATURES:
• Offers 2x the power rating over traditional thin-film chip resistors in the same case sizes
• High thermal conductivity aluminum nitride substrate
• Designed with enlarged backside terminations to reduce the thermal resistance
