Chip resistors terminate for the military

Terminator features IRC's proprietary self-passivating TaNFilm element, providing reliability and excellent high frequency performance.

A high-frequency chip resistor terminator screened in accordance with MIL-PRF-55342 offers design engineers a high frequency device that meets military requirements.

Designated the PFC-HF MIL Series, the terminator features IRC's proprietary self-passivating TaNFilm element, providing reliability and excellent high frequency performance.

"Traditionally, MIL screened chip resistors have been limited to low frequency applications", says Jerry Seams, Applications Engineering Manager for IRC Advanced Film Division.

"Screening our PFC-HF Series high frequency chip terminators to MIL-PRF-55342 enables military and space customers to use the product for those high reliability applications that also require operation at high frequencies".

The PFC-HF Series terminator is ideal for high frequency applications including isolators, combiners, satellites, RF sensing, wireless communication, RFID and high speed digital transmission line termination.

Available in 0603, 0805, and 1206 packages and characterised to 6GHz, the PFC-HF MIL chip resistor terminators feature power ratings of 100, 150 and 250mW at 70C, respectively.

Tolerances are available to +/-10, +/-5, +/-2 and +/-1%, and impedance value is either 50 or 75ohm.

Operating temperature range is from -55 to +125C.

Terminations are plated 60/40 tin/lead.

Pricing for the PFC-HF high frequency terminator is US $2.75 each in quantities of 500 pieces.

Lead time is from stock to 14 weeks.
