HVC0805E5007KET - Ohmite

HVC0805E5007KET Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the thermal resistance of the HVC0805E5007KET?
  The thermal resistance of the HVC0805E5007KET is not explicitly stated in the datasheet, but according to Ohmite's general specifications for the HVC series, the thermal resistance is typically around 250-300°C/W.
• Is the HVC0805E5007KET resistor suitable for high-frequency applications?
  While the HVC0805E5007KET is a high-voltage resistor, it is not specifically designed for high-frequency applications. Ohmite recommends their FVC series for high-frequency applications. However, the HVC0805E5007KET can still be used in high-frequency circuits, but its performance may degrade above 100 MHz.
• Can I use the HVC0805E5007KET in a high-temperature environment?
  The HVC0805E5007KET has a maximum operating temperature of 150°C, but it can be derated for higher temperatures. Ohmite recommends derating the power rating by 1% for every 1°C above 150°C. However, it's essential to consult with Ohmite or a qualified engineer to ensure the resistor's reliability in extreme temperature conditions.
• Is the HVC0805E5007KET resistor compatible with lead-free soldering?
  Yes, the HVC0805E5007KET is compatible with lead-free soldering. Ohmite's resistors are RoHS-compliant and can withstand the higher temperatures required for lead-free soldering processes.
• What is the recommended land pattern for the HVC0805E5007KET?
  Ohmite recommends a land pattern with a minimum pad size of 1.3 mm x 2.5 mm and a minimum spacing of 0.5 mm between pads. However, it's essential to consult the datasheet and Ohmite's application notes for specific land pattern recommendations.
