Vishay PLT Thin Film Resistors

Vishay PLT Thin Film Resistors are critical for precision electronic circuits that require a low Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR), low noise, high stability, and accurate resistance values. These resistors are surface mount chip resistors constructed with a passivated nichrome resistive film on a high-purity alumina substrate and feature a specialized passivation method for corrosion resistance. The PLT series operates within a temperature range from -55°C to +125°C and offers resistance values from 100Ω to 3MΩ. These resistors have a typical voltage coefficient of ±0.1ppm/V and a working voltage from 75V to 200V. Typical applications include industrial, medical imaging, and telecommunications.
