The VSM1506 Discrete Precision Chip Resistor uses the Bulk
Metal
Foil (BMF) Technology for the resistance element. The
BMF provides inherently a low and predictable temperature
coefficient of resistance (TCR) and remarkable load life stability
for precision analog applications. The predictable TCR
variation is independent of value, date code, time and is
expressed via the curve shown below.
The VSM1506 has a newly designed, robust termination which
insures safe handling during the manufacturing process as
well as providing stability during the multiplethermal cyclings
it will see over its service life.
The load life specification has been improved providing even
greater life stability and the ohmic value has been extended
from 33K to 40K Ohms.
A voltage divider can be fashioned by using two arbitrarily
selected VSM1506s; with a resultant tracking specification of
< 3ppm/
°
C.
The VSM1506 replaces the VSM1505 for new designs.
