DLA | Precision Current Sense Resistor

The Isabellenhütte VMI is a precision current sense resistor designed for accurate current measurement in compact electronic systems.
Housed in an 0805 surface-mount package, it provides an optimal balance between small footprint and strong thermal performance, making it suitable for high-density circuit designs.

With resistance values from 10mΩ to 100mΩ and a 0.5W power rating at 70 °C, the VMI supports reliable current sensing across a wide range of applications.
Its stable electrical characteristics and low temperature coefficient ensure accurate measurements, even under varying thermal conditions.

Engineered for demanding environments, the resistor operates across an extended temperature range of −65°C to +170°C.
