The leads on the Z203 connect to the Bulk Metal

element at the top of the package using solder-free, all welded
construction. This high-reliability enhancement protects the
terminations from initial board-assembly and subsequent board
flexation stresses. The welded construction completely eliminates
the possibility of latent failures due to solder reflow and
solder-starved internal connections.

Z203 (Z1-Foil)
Vishay Foil Resistors
ABOUT Z203
Vishay’s new generation of metrology ultra-high precision
Z-Foil resistor features new orders of accuracy, stability and
fast thermal stabilization in sizes small enough for
permanent assembly in operational equipment. This is,
place metrology-grade resistors right into the equipment as
on-board reference standards. Vishay’s Z203 unit offers an
immediate answer to many resistor applications currently
believed unsolvable, and opens entirely new areas of design
where the use of resistors had not been considered.
Applications include:
Secondary standards
Feedback devices for operational amplifiers
Precision voltage dividers
Meter multipliers
Precision bridge resistors
Decade voltage dividers
The performance of Vishay’s Z203 resistor cannot be
equaled by any conventional resistor technologies, or by
bulky units now used as standards. As shown by the
specifications on table 2 and 3, there is no compromise
between precision and speed (as in wirewound units) or
between speed and the combination of excellent precision,
stability and TCR (as with conventional deposited films).
The Z203 is the result of a unique concept in resistor
manufacturing. A proprietary new generation of the Bulk
Metal
®
Z-Foil element with known and controllable properties
is applied to a special ceramic substrate. A resistive pattern
is then photoetched by an ultra-fine technique developed by
Vishay. The device’s etched planar construction results in
the extremely low and reproducible reactance needed for
high-frequency and pulse applications.
Z203 is uniquely enhanced by post manufacturing
operations (PMO) exercised after the manufacturing cycle
has been completed. Some of these exercises are a
standard part of the manufacturing cycle and are only
repeated during the PMO cycle to gain added stability or
confidence in the product. The foil resistor load-life curve
shows an increase in resistance from the first load
application, but flattens out to no further change after the first
few hundred hours of loading. This knee in the load-life curve
is reduced significantly by a special accelerated load-life
operation performed by Vishay, resulting in a flat response
immediately after installation. Other resistive devices show a
continuous change when subjected to these same stresses
and are driven out of tolerance.
The optional PMO for this product includes the combination
of thermal shock, power shot and special burn-in.

the standoffs are seated on the printed circuit board. This is to allow for proper cleaning of flux and other contaminants from the unit after all
soldering processes

POST MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS (PMO) FOR IMPROVED END OF LIFE
Many analog applications can include requirements for performance under conditions of stress beyond the norm and over
extended periods of time. This calls for more than just selecting a standard device and applying it to a circuit. The standard device
may turn out to be all that is needed but an analysis of the projected service conditions should be made and it may well dictate
a routine of stabilization known as post manufacturing operations or PMO. The PMO operations that will be discussed are only
applicable to Bulk Metal Foil resistors. They stabilize Bulk Metal Foil resistors while they may be harmful to other types. Short
time overload, accelerated load life, and temperature cycling are the three PMO methods that do the most to remove the
anomalies down the road. Vishay Bulk Metal Foil resistors are inherently stable as manufactured. These PMO methods are only
of value on Bulk Metal Foil resistors and they improve the performance by amounts that are small but significant when compared
to the very tight tolerances. Users are encouraged to contact Vishay Foil applications engineering for assistance in choosing the
PMO operations that are right for their application.
