State College, PA — State of the Art (SOTA) has expanded its line of high frequency chip resistors. These compact, lightweight designs are ideal for use in RF and microwave applications.

In addition to the standard and MIL-PRF-55342 case sizes new components are available in 14 standard case sizes: 0402 through 3838. These high frequency resistors are available with single surface or wrap around terminations, and a variety of termination materials for solder mount epoxy bond, or wire bond applications. Construction material consists of either an alumina or beryllia body with a proprietary resistor element for optimum performance.

The devices are optimized for 50 ohm characteristic impedance using special manufacturing techniques to reduce VSWR. Power ratings for the resistors range from 50 mW up to 200 W and a low return loss, up to 20 GHz.
