Versatile resistor arrays

Vishay Intertechnology

has released new resistor arrays with matched tolerances down to 0.1 %. The arrays are said to combine four thin film resistors into a single package with a footprint of 1.6 mm by 3.2 mm, a 40 % reduction when compared to the use of four discrete 0603 resistors.

The new Vishay Beyschlag ACAS 0612 series resistor arrays are available in both precision and professional versions. They have absolute TCR down to ± 25 ppm/ K, and tracking TCR as low as 10 ppm/ K. The devices are offered in industry-standard resistance values from 100 ; to 221 k; in numerous configurations including four equal, four different, or two equal value pairs. Matched values for applications such as precision voltage dividers are also available from stock.

Vishay says ACAS 0612 precision resistor arrays deliver high repeatability and stable performance in automotive, industrial and, audio applications. They are suitable for all circuits where designers need close control over the actual resistance present, including feedback circuits, sensing, signal conditioning, measurement bridges, input voltage dividers for analogue and digital circuits, and bus terminations.
