VFC2512 is a Precision Surface Mount Flip Chip Resistor
that utilizes Ultra Precision Bulk Metal
®
“Z” Foil (BMZF) for
the resistive element. This product differs from other Vishay
Bulk Metal
®
Foil surface mount devices in as much as it is
installed with the foil side facing the PCB. The Foil element
is isolated from the PCB by a protective overcoating. This
overcoating plus the overall product design isolates the
resistor from handling and installation stresses.
The flip chip configuration is providing space saving on the
PCB and is more economical for high volume, analog
applications where high precision is required.
The BMZF technology provides inherently an extremely low
and predictable Temperature Coefficient of Resistance
(TCR), remarkable load life stability, low noise and availability
of tight tolerance.
The TCR is a process capability not a selection process and
for most of the range is independant of ohmic value and lot
varied relations. The TCR curve on Fig.1 demonstrates the
new revolutionary Z Foil with its TCR nominal of 0.5ppm/°C.
A voltage divider can be fashioned by using two arbitrarily
selected VFC2512s with a resultant tracking specification of
< 3ppm/°C. Extremely low tracking of < 1ppm/°C can be
supplied upon request.
The availability of tight absolute tolerance provides a good
cost solution for the variability of other components when
compiling the total error budget. BMZF offers the best
stability available; and is an order of magnitude better than
thin film technology. The noise generated by the resistor is
non measurable and its design and construction make it well
suited for high frequency applications.
