Characteristics
Due to a Non-Inductive design these elements are
ideally suited for high frequency and pulse load
applications. The FPA100 is available connected as 2
terminals or 4 terminals, in parallel or series.
• Isotop/SOT227 Semiconductor Style
• 100 Watts dissipation in a small footprint
• Very low inductance
• Direct heatsink mounting
• RoHS Compliant
