Resistance Value, in ohms, is expressed by a series of 6 characters, 5 of which represent significant digits while the 6th is a dual purpose
letter that designates both the multiplier and the location of the comma or decimal.

TABLE 1 - ORDERING INFORMATION
The H series resistors are oil filled, hermetically sealed ultra
precision resistors. The function of hermetic sealing is to
eliminate the ingress of moisture and oxygen both of which
play a roll in the long term degradation of unsealed resistors.
A further enhancement in both short and long term stability is
achieved by oil filling. The oil also acts as a thermal conductor
allowing the device to accept short periods of overload without
degradation.
With accuracies of ± 0.001% and a resistance range from
5 ohms to 1.84 megohms and long term shelf life of less than
5ppm, these devices are virtually secondary standards that
can be carried in sets for daily or periodic calibration of factory
measurement systems.

NOTES:
1. Upper end of resistance range varies with model selected
(i.e. VHP202; the range is to 150Kohms;
VHA518-10, the range is to 1M67 ohms).
2. Not to exceed power rating of resistor.
3. Insulating Sleeve— a special case insulating plastic sleeve
is available on VHA models— specify letter “P” as a suffix to
model number (i.e. VHA412P).
4. 0.200" (5.08mm) lead spacing available— specify VH202J.
5. Maximum is 1.0% A.Q.L. standard for all specifications except
TCR. (For TCR information, see notes 6-10.)
Typical is a designers reference which represents that 85%
of the units supplied, over a long period of time, will be at
least the figure shown or better.
6. Vishay Nominal TCR is defined as the chord slopes of the
relative change of resistance/temperature, expressed in ppm
(parts per million), called (RT) curve from 0°C to + 25°C and
+ 25°C to + 60°C (“Instrument” Range); and from – 55°C to
+ 25°C and + 25°C to + 125°C (“Military” Range). These
specifications and the definition of Nominal TCR apply to all
resistance values including low-value resistors.
7. Vishay Standard TCR Spread is defined as a designers
reference which represents that at least 92% of the units, and
82% of the lots, supplied by Vishay will be within the stated
band centered on the nominal curve. This definition of the
Vishay Standard TCR Spread from Nominal applies to all
resistance values. However, as the resistance value
decreases below 80Ω, the Vishay Standard TCR Spread from
Nominal specification starts to increase. (See Figure 3 in
data sheet “7 Technical Reasons to Specify Vishay Bulk
Metal® Foil Resistive Components.”)

8. Vishay Maximum TCR Spread is defined as the 3 σ (Sigma)
limit of a normal Gaussian distribution (99.73% of a production
lot) which is within a band, centered on the nominal curve.
This Vishay Maximum TCR Spread is no greater than
± 2.5ppm/°C from nominal throughout the full temperature
range. This definition of the Vishay Maximum TCR Spread
from Nominal applies to all resistance values. However,
as the resistance value decreases below 80 Ω, the Vishay
maximum TCR Spread from Nominal specification starts to
increase. (See Figure 3 in data sheet “7 Technical Reasons
to Specify Vishay Bulk Metal® Foil Resistive Components.”)
9. Selected TCR Tracking is available for specially ordered lots
of resistors. The selected TCR tracking can be 3, 2, 1 and as
close as 0.5ppm/°C throughout the full temperature range.
10. TCR tracking is a measure of the similarity of resistance value
change in two or more resistors which are undergoing the
same temperature changes. Tracking could be expressed as
the difference in the temperature coefficients of the resistors,
expressed in ppm/°C as (∆R1/R1 – ∆R2/R2) x 10-6/∆T°C. When
a number of resistors are referenced to a nominal TCR, the
spread or envelope around the nominal would be the
difference. If the spread is ± 1.5ppm/°C about a nominal, the
tracking, as defined above, will be 3ppm/°C.
11. Inductance (L) due mainly to the leads.
12.The resolution limit of existing test equipment (within the
measurement capability of the equipment, or “essentially
zero.”)
13. µV/°C relates to EMF due to lead temperature difference and
µV/watt due to power applied to the resistor.
14. Load life ∆R max. can be reduced through burn-in procedure.
