RALEIGH, NC (October 26, 2005) – Stackpole Electronics, Inc. has expanded its line of anti corrosive, precision chip resistors to now include 1,000 piece quantities on tape and reel.
Designated the RNCS Series, these resistors are available in industry standard 0402 to 2512 sizes. The RNCS Series has a resistance range from 4.7O to 1MO, in tolerances to 0.1% -- with TCRs of 25ppm/°C. The RNCS Series is rated for operation from temperatures of -55°C to 150°C.
Regarding the availability of the RNCS Series in 1,000 piece reels, Rob Hudspeth, Stackpole’s Director of Sales & Marketing commented, “this offering is an extension of our commitment to continually provide value to our customers. We recognize that asking customers to purchase large quantities of these precision resistors is often not practical. We want to differentiate ourselves by being a flexible and customer-focused supplier.”
Typical applications for the RNCS Series of resistors include precision circuits such as attenuator circuits, bridge circuits, RC oscillators and active filters for instrumentation, medical equipment, computers, power supplies and telecommunications.
The RNCS Series is well suited for precision circuitry where moisture sensitivity and protection against harsh environments are a concern or where costly, long lead-time Tantalum Nitride resistors are used. In MIL-STD-202 moisture testing, the RNCS Series demonstrates excellent stability by showing no significant shift in resistance after more than 1,000 hours of life and humidity testing.
RNCS Series pricing is tolerance and TCR dependent, but $0.20 is typical in quantities of 1,000 pieces. Lead times for the RNCS Series is 6 weeks. Alternatively, the RNCS Series is available via SEI FAST, Stackpole’s guaranteed, quick delivery service in as little as 3 weeks.
