SMD Metal-Foil-on-Ceramic resistors boast high surge tolerance, low self-heating
TT Electronics announced the introduction of its Metal Foil Chip (MFC) resistors. The MFC series uses metal foil on ceramic technology, which combines the heat spreading properties of a ceramic substrate with the surge tolerance of a bulk metal alloy resistance element. This, in turn, offers lower self-heating levels than thick-film or metal strip resistors and better surge tolerance than thick-film options, making these resistors particularly well-suited for automotive, industrial, and medical […]
