PCB expert Würth Elektronik’s printed pulse resistors achieved the till now claimed impossible high-voltage range of 200,000 V. That has been realised once more by the Würth Elektronik-owned smart-conductive polymer thick film systems, outstanding due to a wide variability of resistances. A resistance even to extremely high field strength during realtime operation is now approved. Consequently, printed resistors by Würth Elektronik are outclassing conventionally assembled components, especially wired versions, in any important aspect, thus offering new fields of application. They substitute expensive ceramic resistors and providing for more robust and much cost-effective solutions.
Würth Elektronik’s printed pulse resistors’ reason of success is their capability for assimilating quite high KW-load required for milliseconds, thus for the replacement of expensive ceramic resistors. In comparison with conventionally mounted resistors, the printed resistors’ primary advantage is the high integration potential and consequently reduced volume, resulting in more robust and cost-effective components. In many cases, conventionally mounted components are available only as a wired version, resulting in complex assembly and not reliable solder joints.
