NiChrome thin film resistors claim proven stability, low noise and the industry's best TCR. By using NiChrome as the resistive layer, as opposed to tantalum nitride, these devices are capable of achieving TCR characteristics of less than 25ppm. They are available in a large selection of outline types, resistance values and tolerances.

Micrometrics NiChrome thin film resistors are ideally suited for use in hybrid assembly applications where low noise, good power dissipation, and outstanding TCR are critical design factors.

Their small size makes them exceptional for today's ultrasmall packaging requirements.

They are available on a wide range of substrate materials including silicon, ceramic, quartz and aluminium nitride.

Standard tolerances are +/-1%.

Custom values are a specialty and are available with short lead times.

Tantalum nitride resistive layers are also available as standard.
