Most thick film chip resistors have very low voltage handling capability. A chip resistor with high voltage han-
dling capability can present the following potential advantages to all new product designs:
1. Reduce component count on the PC board (use one HV resistor instead of five or six resistors in series)
2. Increased design flexibility (PC board layout with one or two components offers more flexibility than multi-
ple components)
3. Reduce the overall weight of the PC board and the overall size of the finished product
4. Reduce the assembly (placement) costs
5. Improved board-level reliability due to fewer solder joints
Vishay Dale offers the AEC-Q200 qualified high voltage CRMA
series for automotive / high reliability applications and two
industrial thick film chip resistor families (CRHV and CRMV)
in multiple case sizes and terminal configurations to meet
various customer needs. The CRMA (AEC-Q200 qualified) series
offers up to 1415 V of continuous voltage handling capability,
along with the CRMV series industrial version.
The CRHV series offers up to 3000 V of continous voltage
handling capability.
Some Highlights Include:
1. AEC-Q200 qualified (CRMA series)
2. Multiple case sizes
3. Standard tin / lead and lead (pb)-free terminations for easy usage
4. Also offered in epoxy-bondable and and wire bondable-terminations
More details on the performance of these high voltage resistors can be found in the infographic titled “High
Voltage Chip Resistors.” High voltage thick film chip resistors are frequently used in applications that involve
high voltages:
