Introducing the ERJ-U2R, ERJ-U3R, and ERJ-U6R Series Anti-Sulfurated Thick Film Chip Resistors, Precision Type from Panasonic

Panasonic, a renowned manufacturer of electronic components and devices, has recently introduced the ERJ-U2R, ERJ-U3R, and ERJ-U6R Series Anti-Sulfurated Thick Film Chip Resistors, Precision Type. These resistors are meticulously designed to deliver remarkable precision and anti-sulfurization characteristics, effectively preventing sulfide disconnections that can lead to open circuits.

To guarantee reliability and durability in automotive applications, the ERJ-U2R, ERJ-U3R, and ERJ-U6R Series resistors adhere to the AEC-Q200 standard, a widely recognized quality benchmark in the automotive industry. Furthermore, these resistors are compliant with other important reference standards such as RoHS, REACH, and ISO 9001, ensuring an optimal level of quality and reliability.

The ERJ-U2R, ERJ-U3R, and ERJ-U6R Series resistors are specifically engineered to boast high precision and excellent anti-sulfurization characteristics. This is achieved by utilizing thick film technology, a process where conductive materials are deposited in a thick layer on a substrate to create resistors with exceptional precision and reliability.

Thick film technology provides numerous advantages over alternative manufacturing processes. It enables the creation of resistors with high precision and stability, allowing them to maintain their resistance value even when subjected to temperature changes over a wide range. This ensures that the ERJ-U2R, ERJ-U3R, and ERJ-U6R Series resistors are highly reliable and can withstand demanding operating conditions.

Additionally, these resistors are anti-sulfurated, meaning they are resistant to the harmful effects of sulfur. Sulfur can corrode electronic components and cause sulfide disconnections, resulting in open circuits and failure. However, the anti-sulfurization characteristics of the ERJ-U2R, ERJ-U3R, and ERJ-U6R Series resistors prevent such issues from occurring, ensuring the resistors’ reliability and longevity in harsh environments.

Furthermore, these resistors comply with the stringent AEC-Q200 standard, specifically developed to meet the rigorous requirements for performance and durability in automotive electronics. This makes them ideal for use in various automotive systems.

Besides automotive applications, these resistors are also suitable for use in other industries, including telecommunications, industrial equipment, and consumer electronics. They are compatible with high-speed automated mounting processes, simplifying their incorporation into manufacturing operations.

In summary, Panasonic’s ERJ-U2R, ERJ-U3R, and ERJ-U6R Series Anti-Sulfurated Thick Film Chip Resistors, Precision Type, deliver outstanding precision, anti-sulfurization characteristics, and compliance with industry standards. These features ensure their reliability, durability, and suitability for a wide range of applications, providing stable performance and optimal quality.
