CR0201-JW-201GLF - Bourns

CR0201-JW-201GLF Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for CR0201-JW-201GLF?
  The recommended land pattern for CR0201-JW-201GLF is a rectangular pad with a size of 0.5 mm x 0.25 mm, with a non-solder mask defined (NSMD) pad shape. This is to ensure proper soldering and to prevent solder bridging.
• Can I use CR0201-JW-201GLF in high-temperature applications?
  While CR0201-JW-201GLF is rated for operation up to 150°C, it's not recommended for continuous operation above 125°C. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can affect the resistor's stability and reliability.
• How do I handle CR0201-JW-201GLF during PCB assembly to prevent damage?
  Handle CR0201-JW-201GLF components by the edges to prevent damage to the resistive element. Avoid touching the component's surface, as the oils from human skin can affect solderability. Use anti-static wrist straps and mats to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
• What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of CR0201-JW-201GLF?
  CR0201-JW-201GLF has an MSL rating of 1, which means it can withstand normal humidity levels and does not require special handling or storage procedures.
• Can I use CR0201-JW-201GLF in high-vibration or high-shock applications?
  While CR0201-JW-201GLF is designed to be robust, it's not recommended for applications with extreme vibration or shock. The component's small size and thin leads make it susceptible to mechanical stress. Consider using a more ruggedized component or adding additional mechanical support if necessary.
