Panasonic ERA Thin Film Chip Resistors

Panasonic ERA Series Thin Film Chip Resistors offer a wide range of options designed for challenging environments and consist of several series. These resistors feature a soft terminal design with gold inner terminals and ensure stability in high temperatures and humidity. The ERA series thin film chip resistors withstand heat shock, corrosion, and ESD while operating reliably in temperatures from -55°C to +155°C. These resistors provide high accuracy, low resistance tolerance, and anti-sulfurated properties. The thin film resistors are AEC-Q200 qualified and comply with standards like IEC 60115-8, JIS C 5201-8, JEITA RC-2133C, and RoHS/REACH. The ERA series finds use in applications like home appliances, commercial equipment, radars, and aircraft infotainment.
