More options and performance from attenuators
State of the Art (SOTA) has made a number of enhancements and additions to its line of thin-film chip attenuators.
Networks fit for high reliability applications
Established-reliability surface-mount chip resistor networks are now available from State of the Art qualified to MIL-PRF-914.
Available termination styles for the resistors are solderable nickel barrier, epoxy bondable and gold wire bondable.
These resistors are available with tolerances as low as 0.1% and have been tested for use in extreme environmental conditions, the operating temperature range for the resistors is -55 to +125C.
Users can select an established reliability level of M, P, R and S level for the SOTA thick film 0502, 0402, 0603 chip resistors; or, customers can request a T Space Level for mission critical and other applications that require an even higher reliability.
The SOTA chip resistors, designed for use in mission critical applications such as manned space flight, life support systems, human implantable medical devices, and for prolonged periods in satellite communications.
