Components catalogue features 50 new lines
More than 50 new product lines have been added to Rhopoint Components' latest 200 page components catalogue.
The MP2060 power film resistor is ideal for high frequency switching circuits, including snubbers and RF terminations, thanks to its exceptional non-inductive performance.
For motor control and power supply circuits, the high current sensing of up to 60A continuous is achieved by the use of heavy duty leads.
A ceramic mounting surface has been incorporated in the packaging of the resistor to enable high thermal conductivity to a heatsink.
The resistor element is isolated from the mounting surface.
The MP2060 resistor is available from stock in standard resistance values and tolerances from 0.005W +/-5%, from 0.010 W +/-2%, and from 0.020W +/-1% to 1kW +/-1%. Request a free brochure from Rhopoint Components ...
