Thin Film Microwave Resistor

Product may not be to scale

The MIF resistor chips on alumina are designed with low

shunt capacitance. Resistor geometrics are compatible with

strip lines, making them ideally suited for microwave

circuits.

These chips are manufactured using Vishay Electro-Films

(EFI) sophisticated thin film equipment and manufacturing

technology. The MIFs are 100 % electrically tested and

visually inspected to MIL-STD-883, method 2032 class H

or K.

• Microwave resistance range: 20

 to 100 

• Overall resistance range: 20

 to 2 k

• Alumina substrate

• Low stray capacitance: < 0.2 pF

• Resistor material: Tantalum nitride, self passivating

• Moisture resistant

• Power: 50 mW

• Material categorization: For definitions of compliance

APPLICATIONS

Vishay EFI MIF chip resistors provide excellent high

frequency response and are ideally suited for prototyping.

Typical application areas are:

•Amplifiers

• Oscillators

• Attenuators

•Couplers

•Filters
