Current Sense 14A Series

Product catalog summary
Overview: The 14A Series Alumina Body Current Sense Resistors are designed for high power density applications, featuring a ceramic body that provides superior performance compared to silicone-based epoxy compounds. These resistors are available in nine resistance values, ranging from 0.004 to 0.051 ohms, and are ideal for current sensing applications.
Specifications:
  • Material: Ceramic cased body with solder-plated copper terminals or copper clad steel, depending on the ohmic value.
  • Electrical: Maximum voltage is calculated as √(PxR) RMS. Power rating is 4W at 70°C, with a linear derating to 0W at 250°C. Dielectric withstanding voltage is 1000 VRMS for 3 and 5 watt, and 500 VRMS for 2 watt. Insulation resistance is not less than 1000MΩ.
  • Temperature Range: -55°C to 275°C.
  • Tolerance: ±1% standard, with other tolerances available.
  • Thermal EMF: Less than ±2µV/°C.
  • TCR: Varies from +150 to +1100ppm/°C, increasing as resistance value decreases from 51 to 4 milliohms.
Performance Characteristics:
  • Endurance: Less than 5% change in resistance after 1000 hours at rated power.
  • Terminal Strength: Pull strength of 50N for 10 seconds as per IEC115-1, Clause 4.16 Test Ua1.
  • Solderability: 95% coverage as per MIL STD 202F, Test 208.
  • Resistance to Solder Heat: Less than 0.5% change after exposure to -260°C for 10 seconds.
  • Long Term Damp Heat: Less than 5% change in resistance after 56 days at 90-95% RH and 40°C.
  • Climatic Sequence: As per IEC 115-1, Clause 4.23, with less than 5% change in resistance.
  • Overload: Can withstand 5 times the rated wattage for 5 seconds.
Features:
  • Ideal for current sensing applications.
  • 1% tolerance standard.
  • Fixed resistance measuring point.
  • Low inductance.
  • RoHS compliant.
Ordering Information: The part number format is 14AFRxxxE, where 'xxx' represents the ohm value (e.g., R050 for 0.05Ω). The series is identified by '14A', with 'F' indicating a 1% tolerance and 'A' denoting an alumina molded body.
