Bourns CHV Series - High Voltage Chip Resistors

Bourns’ new UL1676-listed high voltage CHV Series Thick Film High Voltage Chip Resistors helps strengthen the manufacturer’s already broad range of surface mount chip resistors.

It comes in five different footprints from 0603 (1608 Metric) up to 2512 (6432 Metric) and is designed to operate with much higher voltages of 200 V on the 0603 size and 3 kV on the 2512 size.

The CHV series is manufactured using a robust thick film element printed on to a ceramic substrate. The new family complements other Bourns circuit conditioning components such as power inductors, rectifier diodes and Zener diodes.

The range is particularly suited to high voltage applications but can also be used in consumer electronics.
