WSHP2818R0470FEA - Vishay

WSHP2818R0470FEA Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended land pattern for this resistor?
  The recommended land pattern for the WSHP2818R0470FEA resistor can be found in the Vishay Intertechnologies' Resistors Land Pattern document (document number 28746). It provides guidelines for pad size, spacing, and geometry to ensure reliable soldering and assembly.
• How does the resistor perform in high-frequency applications?
  The WSHP2818R0470FEA resistor is a thick-film resistor, which can exhibit some inductance and capacitance at high frequencies. However, Vishay Intertechnologies provides a high-frequency model for this resistor in the form of an S-parameter file, which can be used to simulate its behavior in high-frequency circuits.
• Is the resistor suitable for use in automotive applications?
  The WSHP2818R0470FEA resistor meets the requirements of the AEC-Q200 standard, which makes it suitable for use in automotive applications. However, it's essential to verify that the specific use case meets the requirements of the standard and to consult with Vishay Intertechnologies' application engineers if necessary.
• What is the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of this resistor?
  The WSHP2818R0470FEA resistor has an MSL rating of 1, which means it can withstand exposure to moisture without significant degradation. However, it's still important to follow proper handling and storage procedures to prevent moisture absorption.
• Can I use this resistor in a high-temperature environment?
  The WSHP2818R0470FEA resistor has a maximum operating temperature of 155°C. While it can tolerate high temperatures, it's essential to derate the power rating accordingly to prevent overheating and ensure reliable operation.
