SRR0805-120M - Bourns

SRR0805-120M Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for the SRR0805-120M?
  The recommended land pattern for the SRR0805-120M is a rectangular pad with a size of 0.8mm x 0.5mm, with a non-solder mask defined (NSMD) pad shape. This is to ensure proper soldering and to prevent solder bridging.
• Can I use the SRR0805-120M in a high-temperature environment?
  The SRR0805-120M is rated for operation up to 125°C, but it's recommended to derate the current rating by 1.5% per degree Celsius above 80°C to ensure reliable operation. It's also important to consider the PCB material and other components' temperature ratings when designing for high-temperature applications.
• How do I handle the SRR0805-120M during assembly to prevent damage?
  To prevent damage, handle the SRR0805-120M by the edges or the body, avoiding touching the leads or the resistor element. Use anti-static wrist straps, mats, or packaging to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage. Avoid bending or flexing the leads, and ensure proper alignment during placement.
• What is the expected tolerance for the SRR0805-120M's resistance value?
  The SRR0805-120M has a resistance tolerance of ±1% (120mΩ ±1.2mΩ). This means that the actual resistance value may vary by up to 1.2mΩ from the nominal value of 120mΩ.
• Can I use the SRR0805-120M in a high-frequency application?
  The SRR0805-120M is a general-purpose resistor suitable for most applications up to 100MHz. However, for high-frequency applications above 100MHz, it's recommended to consider a specialized high-frequency resistor with a lower inductance and capacitance. Consult the datasheet and application notes for more information.
