Bourns® New AEC-Q200 Compliant, Automotive Grade Thin Film Chip Resistors Offer Higher Resistance Tolerance Accuracy and TCR

Bourns® Model CRT-A Series meets growing demand for small, accurate resistance resistors in automotive, mobile phone, SD card, DDR memory and camera module applications

RIVERSIDE, Calif., August 22, 2024 - Bourns, Inc., a leading manufacturer and supplier of electronic components for power, protection, and sensing solutions, today announced its AEC-Q200 compliant, automotive grade thin film chip resistor model series. The Model CRT-A Series provides higher resistance tolerance accuracy and Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR) compared to traditional through-hole type resistors. The new series delivers enhanced signal quality and is offered in an SMD package. These compact, yet high power-rated resistors offering accurate resistance levels are increasingly required in space-constrained applications, such as mobile phones, SD cards, DDR memory modules and camera modules. Designed to automotive-grade standards, Bourns® CRT-A Series resistors are also ideal resistive solutions for a variety of automotive applications.

This latest thin film resistor series is available in 0402, 0603, 0805 and 1206 package sizes, supports lower tolerances from 0.1 to 1 percent and features a wide TCR range from ±50 PPM/°C to ±10 PPM/°C. In addition, the series provides a resistance range from 10 Ω to 1M Ω and TCR down to ±10 PPM/°C.

The Bourns® Model CRT-A Series is available now and is RoHS* compliant and sulfur- resistant. For more detailed product information, please see: www.bourns.com/products/resistors/fixed-resistors-aec-q200-compliant-resistors.

*RoHS Directive 2015/863, Mar 31, 2015 and Annex.
