This episode of Tech Specs is part of a video series highlighting the features, applications, and technical specs of newly-released products.
Vishay WSHM2818 Power Metal Strip Resistors
Vishay’s WSHM2818 Power Metal Strip resistors feature an all-welded construction ideal for pulse applications, voltage division, and current sensing.
The design incorporates improved thermal management that enables high power density and reduces measurement error, while also offering very low inductance. The resistors can handle 7W in a 2818 case size, and Vishay’s proprietary processing enables resistance values down to 1mΩ and tolerance down to plus or minus 0.5%.
Vishay WSHM2818 Power Metal Strip resistors are AEC-Q200 qualified and are unaffected by high sulfur environments.
