Furthermore, the CRCW e3 resistors—available in packages 0402, 0603, 0805, 1206, 1210, 1218, 2010, and 2512—dissipate more power than standard resistors and have a tolerance of 1% and 5%, as well as a TCR of 100ppm/K and 200ppm/K.
Tests have demonstrated that this series has better overload and impulse resistance than the D/CRCW e3 series.
Its excellent characteristics have earned it AEC-Q200 Rev. C automotive certification, and it is also environmentally friendly, being RoHS compliant and halogen-free.
This series of resistors is used in applications with repeated pulses and overloads, high-component-density PCBs, switching circuits, AC power supply protection, automotive, industrial equipment, measurement and testing equipment, and telecommunications infrastructure.
The attached table lists some of the most important characteristics of the CRCW e3 series.
