High Voltage (Up to 3 kV) Thick Film Chip Resistors
The RCV e3 high voltage thick film chip resistors series are
the perfect choice for modern electronics with high voltage
requirements. Typical applications include automotive
inverters for H(EV) cars, voltage measurement systems as
implemented in on board chargers, and DC-DC converters.
FEATURES
High operating voltage (up to 3 kV)
Low voltage coefficient of resistance (VCR):
25 ppm/V
RCV-AT series AEC-Q200 qualified
Material categorization: for definitions of
compliance please see www.vishay.com/doc?99912
APPLICATIONS
Inverters for (H)EV cars
On board chargers
•DC-DC converters
Note
(1) Please refer to APPLICATION INFORMATION below
APPLICATION INFORMATION
When the resistor dissipates power, a temperature rise above the ambient temperature occurs, dependent on the thermal
resistance of the assembled resistor together with the printed circuit board. The rated dissipation applies only if the permitted
film temperature is not exceeded.
These resistors do not feature a limited lifetime when operated within the permissible limits. However, resistance value drift
increasing over operating time may result in exceeding a limit acceptable to the specific application, thereby establishing a
functional lifetime.

DESCRIPTION
Production is strictly controlled and follows an extensive set
of instructions established for reproducibility. A cermet film
layer and a glass-over are deposited on a high grade (Al2O3)
ceramic substrate. Specially designed inner contacts are
deposited on both sides. A special laser is used to achieve
the target value by smoothly fine trimming the resistive layer
without damaging the ceramics. The resistor elements are
covered by a protective coating designed for electrical,
mechanical, and climatic protection. The terminations
receive a final pure tin on nickel plating. The result of the
determined production is verified by an extensive testing
procedure on 100 % of the individual chip resistors. Only
accepted products are laid directly into the tape in
accordance with IEC 60286-3 type 1a and 2a (1).
ASSEMBLY
The resistors are suitable for processing on automatic SMD
assembly systems. They are suitable for automatic
soldering using wave, reflow or vapor phase as shown in
IEC 61760-1 (1). The encapsulation is resistant to all
cleaning solvents commonly used in the electronics
industry, including alcohols, esters, and aqueous solutions.
The suitability of conformal coatings, potting compounds
and their processes, if applied, shall be qualified by
appropriate means to ensure the long-term stability of the
whole system.
The resistors are RoHS-compliant, the pure tin plating
provides compatibility with lead (Pb)-free and
lead-containing soldering processes. Solderability is
specified for 2 years after production or requalification. The
permitted storage time is 20 years. The immunity of the
plating against tin whisker growth has been proven under
extensive testing.
