New 5 Watt Shunt Resistor from KOA

Current sense resistors from KOA’s SL series are now available with a 5-watt rated power. The SLN5 has a 4528 package size, with a resistance range from 5 to 9.1 mOhm (TCR 110) or 10 to 200 mOhm (TCR 75). The wide temperature range extends up to 180°C, with derating only beginning at 120°C (terminal temperature). The component is available with 0.5% or 1% tolerance. The resistor features high pulse load capability and meets AEC-Q200 requirements.

The SL series is now available in package sizes from 2010 to 4528, with rated power ranging from 0.75 to 5 watts. The temperature range consistently spans from -55 to +180°C. All components from the SL family meet AEC-Q200 requirements. A jumper version, type SLZ1, is also available in a 2512 package size with a permissible current load of 44 A. The application fields for the SL are diverse, including current sensing in automotive applications, ECUs, power supplies and chargers, current transformers, etc.
