Vishay WSLP Power Metal Strip Resistors

Vishay WSLP Series Power Metal Strip Resistors have an extremely high power-to-footprint size ratio of 3W in 2512, 2W in 2010, 1W in 1206, 0.5W in 0805, and 0.4W in 0603 packages. WSLP power metal strip resistors include a proprietary processing procedure that yields extremely low resistance values down to 0.0005Ω. These AEC-Q200-qualified WSLP resistors feature a very low inductance range from 0.5nH to 5nH and a low thermal EMF of <3μV/°C. Typically, WSLP resistors are used in power amplifiers, shunts, switching and linear power supplies, instruments, and current-sensing pulse applications.
