DESCRIPTION
The re sist ors ar e con str uct ed o n a h igh gra de c er ami c bo dy (a lum iniu m
oxide). Internal metal elect rodes are added at each end and connected by
a resistive paste, which is applied to the top surface of the substrate. The
composition of the paste is adjusted to give the approximate resistance
required and the value is trimmed to within tolerance by laser cutting of
this resistiv e layer.
The res istive layer is cover ed with a pr otect ive co atin g and printed with
the resistance value. Finally, the two external end ter minations are added.
To guarantee optimum solderability the outer layer consists of a lead-tin
alloy.

SOLDERING CONDITIONS
The robust construction of chip resistors allows them to
be completely immersed in a solder bath of 260 °C for
one minute. Therefore, it is possible to mount surface-
mount resistors on one side of a PCB and other
components on the reverse side (mixed PCBs).
Surface-mount resistors are tested for solderability at
235 °C during 2 seconds. The test condition for no
leaching is 260 °C for 60 seconds. Typical examples of
soldering processes that provide reliable joints without
any damage, are given in Figs 5 and 6.
