INTRODUCTION
Why tight tolerance is important?
Why do users employ tight tolerance resistors? A system or
a device or one particular circuit element must perform for a
specified period of time and at the end of that service period
it must still be performing within specifications.
During its useful life it may have been subjected to some
hostile service conditions and it is no longer within purchased
tolerance.
What is ratio?
The ratio tolerances available in a divider are variable and
dependent on resistor technology. Bulk Metal
®
foil provides
the tightest ratio tolerance available.
The tight resolution capability and overall stability of foil
resistors permit adjustment within the divider to ratio not
available with other technologies. Ratios in network form, in
a common package have a better chance of holding tight
tolerances than those formed in a discrete matched set by
sorting.
Molded foil 300144, 300145 resistors can be provided in a
tolerance as tight as 0.005 %. Theoretically, ratios such as
these can be made initially with other resistor technologies.
However, less stable products will not hold these tight ratios
tolerances over time and applied stresses like voltage and
temperature.
Vishay Bulk Metal foil dividers/networks 300144, 300145
hold their ratio tolerances under defined circumstances.
Networks with tight ratio tolerances and controlled tracking
extend the useful life of equipment, whether expressed as
mean-time-between-failures (MTBF) or service periods to
recalibration or end-of-life-cycle.
How to avoid thermal EMF?
When the resistor’s terminals and the resistive element are
made of dissimilar metals and two junctions are at a different
temperature, a voltage is produced which is called “thermal
EMF”.
The level of voltage output is a function of the metals
involved and the differential temperature. The voltage
produced is either positive or negative depending on which
junction is considered as a reference point. Virtually all
resistive products have these metallic junctions. It is
presumed they will eventually be terminated to copper as a
final metallic combination and therefore copper is used as a
typical reference material.
300144, 300145 have the lowest thermal EMF’s because all
junctions have low microvolts outputs. Moreover,
construction of the resistive element is such that the input
and output junctions of the resistor are so close that the
temperature gradients between then is highly unlikely. These
design factors produce a divider with very low thermal EMF.
