Small size series current sense surface mount chip resistors

(Product News, 9 Mar 2007)

TT electronics Welwyn Components has launched the LRCS series, a family of ultra small, low-value, current sense surface mount chip resistors. Designed for current sensing in power electronic systems, the fully RoHS compliant LRCS series is suitable for a range of applications including the monitoring of power usage and battery life; and provision of output protection for power supplies; as well as for a range of consumer and automotive products such as satellite navigation, hand-held PDA's and digital set-top boxes.

The series has an ambient temperature range of -55°C to +155°C. Exhibiting a resistance range up to 1R0 and excellent heat dissipation qualities, the series offers designers enhanced power handling capabilities and protection from the threat of localised heating, resulting in the production of a more energy efficient product.
