RWS7 & RWS10
Precision Power
Wirewound SMD Resistors
This product has been uniquely designed to meet the rising power requirement
for surface mount components. Optimised thermal design is targeted to give
greater efficiency and improved surge capacity of up to 5 times for 5 seconds,
whilst reducing surface temperature rise compared with other resistors.
It has high reliability and has been engineered to reduce long term thermal
damage to boards and surrounding components. Available in low inductance
format, close TCR and tolerance bands. This product is RoHS compliant.
