Thin-film
chip resistor supplies ultra-stable performance
Gina Roos - eeProductCenter - 02/17/2004

data sheet /
www.niccomp.com
The NTR series of
high precision, thin-film chip resistors from NIC Components Corp.
features an ultra-stable, temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) of
10 to 50 ppm over a wide temperature range and low noise figure. The
resistors are designed for precision applications such as
telecommunications, automotive, medical, audio and test instrumentation.
These lead-free devices have a resistance value tolerance range of 0.1% to
0.5%, and a operating temperature range of -55°C to 125° C. They are
available in case sizes from 0402 to 2512. Resistance values range from 1Ω
to 1MΩ, and working voltages from 25 V to 150 V.
These devices have a nickel chromium (NiCr) sputtered, thin-film resistive
element on an alumina substrate. The wrap-around terminations with nickel
barrier and tin finish are compatible with established tin-lead and
emerging lead-free soldering processes.
Supplied on an 8-mm carrier tape for automatic pick and place assembly,
the chip resistors are priced at $0.01 to $0.08 each in production
volumes. Delivery is from stock to eight weeks.

The new NRSZC series of miniature aluminum
electrolytic capacitors from NIC Components Corp. provide low
impedance and high ripple current ratings across a wide temperature range.
This new series of polarized, radial leaded devices are designed for a
wide range of applications including switching power supplies, voltage
regulator modules and DC-DC converters.
The NRSZC capacitors provide improved performance for applications that
use NIC's existing NRSZ series. The new series is available in a
capacitance range of 47 μF to 18,000 μF with rated voltage values of 6.3
Vdc to 35 Vdc.
Offering an operating temperature range of -55°C to 105°C, and a life
expectancy of up to 7,000 hours, the NRSZC capacitors can be used in
applications that require long life operation in high temperature
environments. They are available in case sizes that range from 5 x 11 mm
to 18 x 41 mm. Pricing ranges between $0.06 to $0.69 each in production
volumes. Delivery is 12 to 20 weeks.

Components tap WLAN chip sets

Driven
by suppliers of wireless-LAN chip sets, passive-component manufacturers
are developing innovative devices and technologies to meet the
requirements for high-performance characteristics such as quality, or "Q,"
factor, equivalent-series resistance (ESR) and small packaging in the WLAN.
Next-generation components for WLAN applications will most likely come in
the form of antennas, integrated passive devices and module designs, many
of them based on low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology for
high performance and small size.
NIC Components' answer to a host of wireless applications is its
wide range of low-ESR and high-Q NPO ceramic chip capacitors. Designed for
high-speed, high-frequency applications such as Bluetooth and WLAN
products, the NMC-L and NMC-M chip capacitors are available
in a capacitance range of 0.5 to 150 pF.

Solid-aluminum caps aim at
output-filter circuits
eeProductCenter / 02/07/2002
data sheet
/ www.niccomp.com
NIC
Components Corp. has an improved version of its NSP
solid-aluminum-electrolytic capacitors. The line targets output-filter
circuits for low-voltage and high-current dc/dc converters, switching
power supplies and voltage regulators.
The surface-mount , specialty-polymer solid-electrolyte caps feature
ultralow equivalent series resistance (ESR) and high ripple current
ratings at high frequency. New are an expanded capacitance range and
improvements in ESR and ripple-current ratings.
The new capacitance is 2.2 microfarads to 390 microfarads with voltage
ratings from 2 volts dc to 16 V dc. The 100-kHz ESR specs have been
reduced to 0.005 ohm, and the ripple current ratings have been
increased to 3,000 milliamps rms (100 kHz, 105 degrees C).
The parts, in a standard D case, run at 55 cents to $2.20 each in
production quantities. Lead time is six to 10 weeks.
