RALEIGH, NC (June 5, 2024) – Precision electronic devices across various market segments demand high-reliability components. Automotive grade resistors provide enhanced reliability and performance at a lower cost and with better availability than military-spec components. However, for high-reliability applications such as automotive controls, medical devices, industrial controls, and aerospace instrumentation that also require defined pulse withstand capabilities, options are limited.

Stackpole RPCA image 1 RPCA Automotive Grade Pulse Withstanding Chip Resistors For High Reliability ApplicationsStackpole’s RPCA series, AEC-Q200 qualified, excels in pulse handling thanks to proprietary materials, design, and manufacturing processes. It demonstrates superior performance in all AEC-Q200 tests, reducing the expected failure rate by at least ten times compared to general-purpose resistors. Additionally, the RPCA series features outstanding anti-sulfur performance, passing the ANSI/EIA-977 sulfur test with minimal resistance shift at 105°C.

Pricing for the RPCA depends on size, resistance value, power rating, and tolerance. Contact Stackpole or one of our franchised distribution partners for specific or volume pricing.
