Construction
Thick film resistor material, overglaze and
organic protections are screen printed on a 96%
alumina substrate. Wrap-around terminations
have an electroplated nickel barrier and tin-lead
solder coating; this ensures excellent ‘leach’
resistance properties and solderability. Chips
can withstand immersion in solder at 260°C for
30 seconds.
Marking
No marking provided.
Solvent Resistance
The body protection and marking are resistant to
all normal industrial cleaning solvents suitable
for printed circuits.

Single Impulse.
The single impulse graph is the
result of 50 impulses of
rectangular shape applied at one
minute intervals. The limit of
acceptance was a shift in
resistance of less than 1% from
the initial value. The power
applied was subject to the
restrictions of the maximum
permissible impulse voltage
graph as shown.
Continuous Load Due to
Repetitive Pulses.
The continuous load graph was
obtained by applying repetitive
rectangular pulses where the
pulse period was adjusted so
that
the
average
power
dissipated in the resistor was
equal to its rated power at 70°C.
Again the limit of acceptance
was a shift in resistance of less
than 1% from the initial value.

Mounting
PWC resistors are ideally suited for handling by automatic methods due to their rectangular shape and the
small dimensional tolerances. Electrical connection to a ceramic substrate or to a printed circuit board can be
made by reflow soldering of wrap-around terminations.
Wrap-around terminations provide good leach properties and ensure reliable contact. Due to the robust
construction the PWC can be immersed in the solder bath for 30 seconds at 260°C. This enables the resistor
to be mounted on one side of a printed circuit board and wire-leaded components applied on the other side.
Operating Temperature Range
PWC resistors themselves can operate at a maximum temperature of 155°C (see performance above). For
soldered resistors, the joint temperature should not exceed 110°C. This condition is met when the stated
power levels at 70°C are used.
Ordering Procedure
Specify type reference etc as shown in this example of PWC2512 10K ohms 1%.
