Bourns provides a recommended PCB layout and land pattern in their application notes and design guides. It's essential to follow these guidelines to ensure optimal performance, thermal management, and reliability.
To select the correct current rating, consider the maximum current required by your load, as well as any potential inrush currents or surges. Also, ensure the resistor's power rating is sufficient to handle the expected power dissipation.
The tolerance on the resistance value is specified in the datasheet as ±2%. This means the actual resistance may vary by up to 2% from the nominal value. Ensure your design can accommodate this variation to maintain optimal performance.
The temperature coefficient (TCR) specifies how much the resistance changes with temperature. A low TCR is desirable for stable performance. Consider the operating temperature range and the TCR when selecting a resistor to ensure it meets your design requirements.
Yes, Bourns recommends following standard handling and storage procedures for electronic components, including avoiding excessive moisture, mechanical stress, and electrostatic discharge (ESD).
