Abstract: This paper is focused on the dynamic stretch testing of SMD chip resistors that were contacted on a textile conductive ribbon by a thermo-compression method. In this method, the plastic ...

Have you ever tried to measure an SMD resistor or SMD transistor using an ohmmeter? It’s not as easy as it looks and your luck was probably like mine. Faster than a flea, the resistor sprang straight ...

Abstract: The paper deals with the static bend testing of electrically conductive glued joints between SMD chip resistors and conductive pattern on flexible substrates. Two types of two-part epoxy ...

A simple PCB to test SMD LEDs. Solder your SMD LEDs and add an adaquate resitor to it and you will be able to choose quickly the right couple LED/R for your next project ! I did it since I do have ...

How to treat sub-milliohm chips as a separate class of component. Strategies to avoid pitfalls during component selection and PCB layout design. Uncover opportunities ...

High-power SMD ceramic-based chip resistors are susceptible to solder joint failure, cracking, and pulling the solder lands off the PCB. High power SMD ceramic-based chip resistors are susceptible to ...

Vishay has improved temperature drift in its TNPU e3 series of precision resistors, and now has ±2 ppm/K ±0.02% devices in 0603, 0805, and 1206 surface-mount sizes. “This combination makes the AEC ...

We’re big fans of surface mount parts. SMD components are cheaper, take less board space, and don’t require drilling; all the coolest new parts are only available in SMD packages. Smart Tweezers are a ...

As the resistors used in electronic applications with low power consumption get smaller and smaller, their pulse load capability is becoming more critical. With continuous pulse loads and single pulse ...
