2304-H-RC - Bourns

2304-H-RC Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal performance of the 2304-H-RC?
  Bourns recommends a symmetrical PCB layout with a solid ground plane to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensure optimal performance. A minimum of 2 oz copper thickness is recommended for the PCB.
• How does the 2304-H-RC handle high-frequency noise and EMI?
  The 2304-H-RC is designed to provide excellent high-frequency noise and EMI rejection due to its hybrid construction, which combines a wirewound resistor with a metal film resistor. This design helps to filter out high-frequency noise and EMI.
• What is the maximum power rating of the 2304-H-RC at high temperatures?
  The maximum power rating of the 2304-H-RC decreases with increasing temperature. At 125°C, the maximum power rating is approximately 50% of the rated power at 25°C. Consult the datasheet for specific derating curves.
• Can the 2304-H-RC be used in high-vibration or high-shock applications?
  Yes, the 2304-H-RC is designed to withstand high-vibration and high-shock environments. It meets the requirements of MIL-STD-202, Method 204, and IEC 60068-2-27 for vibration and shock resistance.
• Is the 2304-H-RC suitable for use in high-reliability or safety-critical applications?
  Yes, the 2304-H-RC is designed and manufactured to meet the requirements of high-reliability and safety-critical applications. It is qualified to AEC-Q200 and meets the requirements of various industry standards for reliability and performance.
