New Yorker Electronics Expands Metal Strip Power Shunt Resistors with VPG 2-Terminal Resistors

NORTHVALE, N.J. - Sept. 16, 2022 - PRLog -- New Yorker Electronics has expanded its line of CSM Series of current sense resistors VPG Foil Resistors' new +A grade, fully standardized Power Shunts. Relying on proprietary techniques to create low resistance values and improved TCR, the VPG CSM2817, CSM3920A, CSM5930A and CSM2512A Power Shunts have a resistance range of 0.1 mΩ to 100 mΩ and a TCR of ±15 ppm/°C to ±200 ppm/°C. They have a tolerance of ±0.1% to 5% and are power rated to 15W (at 70°C).

These VPG Metal Strip Power Resistors are used for medical and automatic test equipment, communication systems, power amplifiers, high-current applications for the automotive market and others. Each has a  working temperature rated between -65°C to 170°C.

The VPG CSM2817 series is 0.250in x 0.169in x 0.039in. It features a temperature coefficient of resistance to ±50 ppm/°C max. (+20°C to +120°C), a power rating to 5W, a maximum current to 70A and a resistance range of 1mΩ to 100mΩ. It has a short time overload of ±0.3%. Its E-Beam welding construction consists of copper terminals and NiCr resistive element.

The VPG CSM3920A series is 0.394in x 0.201in with various height options. It boasts a power rating of up to 12W with, a maximum current to 244A a resistance range of 0.2mΩ to 4mΩ. It also has a short time overload of ±0.5% and low Inductance <3nH.

The 0.591in x 0.299in VPG CSM5930A series features a temperature coefficient of resistance to ±50 ppm/°C maximum (+20°C to +120°C), a power rating to 15W and a resistance range of 0.1mΩ to 3mΩ. Its short time overload is ±0.5% with a maximum current up to 387A.

VPG's CSM2512A series (0.248in L x 0.122in W) has a temperature coefficient of resistance to ±70 ppm/°C max. (+20°C to +120°C). It offers a power rating to 6W, a resistance range of 0.2 mΩ to 5 mΩ, a maximum current of up to 173A and a short time overload of ±0.5%.

These VPG Resistors are also designed for switching and linear power supplies, power management systems, measurement instrumentation, frequency converters and high current applications for the automotive market. Made-to-stock and available in tape & reel, quick prototype quantities are available through New Yorker Electronics.

NYE supplies VPG Bulk Metal Foil Resistors (Surface Mount & Through Hole), Power Current Sensors, Hermetically Sealed Resistors, Voltage Dividers and Networks, Trimmers, High Temperature Resistors and Hybrid Chips and PRND.
