DTO25 SMD Power Thick Film Resistors

Vishay offers an AEC-Q200-qualified, 25 W thick film power resistor in a compact, surface-mount TO-252 style (DPAK) package. For automotive, industrial, and military applications, the Vishay Sfernice DTO25 saves space compared to previous-generation solutions, while providing high power dissipation of at least 3.2 W on the PCB and a wide range of resistance values. DTO25 is non-inductive and provides a resistance range from 0.016 Ω to 700 kΩ. Offering a compact 8.2 mm by 7.3 mm footprint with a low 2.8 mm profile, the thick film resistor can support high energy, up to 5 kW+ for a 10^-5 second pulse and 10 J for a 0.1 second pulse.

DTO25 provides long-term reliability for power supply, load resistor, snubber, power conversion, and pre-charging and discharging in battery management systems for hybrid and electric cars, missile control boards, and UPS. In these applications, it allows designers to replace several chip resistors with one device to lower costs, simplify layouts, and reduce the size of their end products. The device is RoHS-compliant, offers a moisture sensitivity level of 1, and supports soldering temperatures at +270°C for 10 seconds.
