TO-220 housing
Low inductance and capacitance for high frequency circuits
Available in 20W, 35W, or 50W
High stability film resistance elements
RoHS compliant
Approved to DSCC drawings 07017 and 07018
IRC’s MHP series resistors satisfy demanding applications for accurate
and stable power resistors housed in the convenient TO-220 case. The
resistance element is isolated from the mounting tab by an alumina ceramic layer, providing very low ther-
mal resistance and ensuring high insulation resistance between terminals and tab. The non-inductive design
makes these products especially useful in high frequency and high speed pulse applications.

Application Notes:
1.
Insulating material is unnecessary between the heat sink
and the tab, as the resistor film is isolated by the internal
alumina substrate.
2. When mounting with a fastener, thermal grease is
recommended.
3. Thermal design should satisfy the following equation: Tab
Temperature (T
T
) + [Thermal Resistance (R
qJT
) x Power
applied (Watts)]
≤
155°C over the full operating temperature
of the application.
4. Resistor film temperature is not to exceed 155°C during
operation.
5. This product is RoHS compliant by exemption according to
RoHS directive 2002/95/EC exemptions 5 & 7, as they apply
to lead in glass and internal solder connections.
Resistance Code
