The Z-foil technology provides a significant increase of stability of resistance value’s sensitivity to ambient temperature variations (TCR) and applied power changes (PCR). Designers can now guarantee a high degree of stability and accuracy in fixed-resistor applications using solutions based on VPG’s revolutionary Z-foil technology.
Model VCS1625ZP is a surface mount chip resistor designed with 4 pads for Kelvin connection. Utilizing VPG’s Bulk Metal® Z-foil as the resistance element, it provides performance capabilities far greater than other resistor technologies can supply in a product of comparable size. 0.05 ppm/°C typical TCR removes errors due to temperature gradients.
