The MU ultra-precision resistor 1-2-3 network series from Alpha Electronics offers a 3 terminal, 2 element resistor network in a small surface-mount package. Each resistive element can range from 10ฮฉ up to 20kฮฉ all with tight tolerances down to +0.02% absolute and +0.01% matching (1kฮฉ to 20kฮฉ). By utilising Alpha’s Bulk Metalยฎ foil resistor technology, they are able to produce this resistor network series with low temperature coefficients (both absolute and tracking) as well as excellent long-term stability. The Alpha MU series J-lead terminals provide flexibility once the parts are soldered to the board compared to standard fixed surface-mount resistors.

  • 2 element resistor network
  • Each resistor element is available in any resistance between 10ฮฉ and 20kฮฉ
  • Surface-mount moulded package with J-lead terminations
  • Tight absolute tolerance of ยฑ0.02% for resistances between 1kฮฉ and 20kฮฉ with an even tighter matching tolerance of ยฑ0.01% over the same resistance range available
  • Tight absolute TCR of ยฑ5 ppm/ยฐC (from -55ยฐC up to +125ยฐC, between 100ฮฉ and 20kฮฉ)
  • Tight tracking TCR available of between ยฑ1 ppm/ยฐC and ยฑ5 ppm/ยฐC depending on resistance ratio between the two elements
  • Power rating of 0.05W per resistor element (at +125ยฐC)
  • Maximum rated operating temperature +125ยฐC
  • Temperature range from -65ยฐC up to +150ยฐC

 

The MU surface-mount, ultra-precision resistor 1-2-3 network series exhibits excellent high frequency characteristics thanks to Alpha’s Bulk Metalยฎ foil resistor technology, making them suitable for the most demanding precision applications.

Alpha’s MU resistor network series are ideal for use in input and feedback resistors for amplifiers due to both the input and feedback resistors being incorporated into the same package, therefore amplification is not affected by temperature change.
