CRL0805-FW-3R30ELF - Bourns

CRL0805-FW-3R30ELF Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended soldering temperature for this resistor?
  The recommended soldering temperature for the CRL0805-FW-3R30ELF is between 260°C to 280°C for a maximum of 10 seconds.
• Is this resistor suitable for high-frequency applications?
  While the CRL0805-FW-3R30ELF is a general-purpose resistor, it may not be the best choice for high-frequency applications due to its inductance and parasitic capacitance. For high-frequency applications, consider using a resistor with a specific high-frequency design, such as the Bourns CHP series.
• Can I use this resistor in a high-temperature environment?
  The CRL0805-FW-3R30ELF has a maximum operating temperature of 150°C. While it can tolerate short-term excursions up to 200°C, prolonged exposure to high temperatures can affect its performance and lifespan. If you need a resistor for high-temperature applications, consider using a high-temperature resistor like the Bourns CRH series.
• What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of this resistor?
  The CRL0805-FW-3R30ELF has an MSL rating of 1, which means it can be exposed to ambient humidity and temperature conditions without requiring special handling or storage.
• Can I use this resistor in a high-vibration environment?
  The CRL0805-FW-3R30ELF is a surface-mount device and can be susceptible to vibration-induced failures. However, Bourns Inc. has designed this resistor to meet the requirements of various vibration standards, including IEC 60068-2-6. Nevertheless, it's essential to evaluate the resistor's performance in your specific application and consider using a vibration-resistant resistor if necessary.
