Low-Ohmic Chip Resistors

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Yageo's low-ohmic chip resistors are designed to replace traditional wirewound and leaded products in modern power control circuits. They offer lower parasitic inductance and are compatible with high-volume pick-and-place assembly systems, making them cost-effective for low voltage power supplies and battery management systems. These resistors feature a low temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) to minimize resistance changes due to self-heating and high temperatures.
Features
- Excellent T.C.R. performance
- Standardized sizes for easy interchangeability
- Compatibility with surface-mount assembly processes
- Ultra-low resistance and narrow tolerance for current detection
- High reliability
- RoHS/REACH compliant & Halogen free
Low-ohmic Chip Resistors in Circuit
These resistors are used in power sensing applications, such as sensing output current in power supplies and automotive systems. They function as current sensors, generating a sensing voltage for feedback control networks. The sensing voltage is typically set at around 100 mV to save power and maintain noise immunity.
Effect of Component Characteristics on Current Sensing Applications
In feedback circuits, the output current through a choke is not pure DC but exhibits ripple. A trade-off between choke volume and output current ripple is necessary. A ripple of 0.04 is considered a good compromise. The allowable deviation on sensing resistance is influenced by T.C.R., with Yageo's resistors falling within acceptable limits.
Detecting Over Current
To detect current through a transistor, a resistor is added between an emitter and ground. This resistor should withstand high currents without damage. Metal plate type resistors are recommended for their low resistance and reduced parasitic inductance.
Applications
Yageo's low-ohmic chip resistors are suitable for current sensing control in various applications, including consumer goods, telecom, automotive, medical, computers, power, alternative energy, and industrial sectors.
DC/DC Converter
In DC/DC converters, the voltage across the current detecting resistor is fed back to control output power. The resistor should have low resistance to reduce power dissipation and low self-inductance for high-frequency applications.
Decision Trees
The document includes decision trees for selecting low-ohmic resistors based on metal and thick film technology, as well as jumper chip resistors.

Low-Ohmic Chip Resistors-3

Introduction The sensing voltage Vs is given by the simple relation: Yageo’s low-ohmic chip resistor ranges are the ideal replacement for traditional wirewound and leaded products in modern power control circuits. Based on the company’s thick film technology, these products exhibit far lower parasitic inductance than their wirewound and leaded counterparts. Vs = Io x Rsense Thermal EMF is an important consideration in low value resistors used in DC circuits. We utilize metal foil technology to produce resistors with low thermal EMF characteristics (below 0.03μV/°C). Features • Excellent T.C.R....

Tolerances on sensing resistance As mentioned earlier, the relation between low-ohmic resistance, feedback sensing voltage and output current is given by Rsense = Vs/Io. With an output ripple of 0.04, i.e. a 4% (± 2%) deviation on output current and a safety margin on the sensing voltage of -2%, the allowable deviation on Rsense is: 0.98 x Vs 0.98 x 1o Vs 0.85 x 1o With say, Vs= 100 mV and Io= 5 A, the allowable low ohmic sensing resistance must lie in the range 19.2mΩ to 20.4mΩ. Consideration of T.C.R. in current sensing applications The above discussion does not, of course, take into account...

DC/DC converter Low-Ohmic Chip Resistors The Figure 6 on the right shows the current detecting circuit of a DC/DC converter. The voltage across the current detecting resistor is fed back to control the output power. The resistance should be low to reduce power dissipation, and the resistor should stand against repeated rush current. Furthermore the self-inductance should be low for high frequency applications. Recommended types are Px series chip resistors. As for high frequency DC/DC converters, metal plate chip resistors PF series best fit in. Figure 6 DC/DC converter circuit Applications of...
