Welwyn / TT Electronics DPCR Series Defibrillator Pulse Chip Resistors are designed to withstand medical defibrillator surges. The resistors prevent electrical energy from being diverted into sensitive monitoring equipment connected to a patient. This avoids any reduction in the effectiveness of defibrillation, while also protecting the equipment. 20K and 51K values at 5% tolerance are available and the resistors can withstand ESD to 15kV. Welwyn / TT Electronics DPCR Series Defibrillator Pulse Chip Resistors applications include heart monitors, blood flow monitors, portable defibrillators, and neurological monitors.
Thick film resistor material, overglaze, and organic protection are screen printed on a 96% alumina substrate. Wrap-around terminations have an electroplated nickel barrier and solderable coating; this ensures excellent ‘leach’ resistance properties and solderability.
