designers to lower pick-and-place costs
and save board space in automotive
and industrial applications, the AEC-
Q200-qualified devices are available
with two resistors of different values in
the 0606 case size (CRAS0606), or two
pairs of resistors with different values
in the 0612 case size (CRAS0612 and
CRAE0612).
With resistance from 10 Ω to 1 MΩ,
resistance tolerance of ± 1 % and ±
5 %, and TCR of ± 100 ppm/K and
± 200 ppm/K, the Vishay Draloric
resistor arrays released today are to be
used as voltage dividers, operational
amplifier feedback circuits, and DC/DC
converter output voltage sensing.
The convex terminal arrays are
available with square corners (version
S) or scalloped corners (version E).
RoHS-compliant and halogen-free,
theCRAS0606,
CRAS0612,
and
CRAE0612 feature a 50 V operating
voltage, power dissipation of 0.063 W
per element at +70 °C, and operate
over a temperature range of -55 °C to
+155 °C.
Samples and production quantities of
the thick film, multi-resistance-value
resistor arrays are available now, with
lead times of 10 weeks.

Releases AEC-Q101-Qualified
Tall Dome Transmissive
Optical Sensors for
Automotive and Industrial
Applications
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE:
VSH) today introduced two new
AEC-Q101-qualified surface-mount
transmissive optical sensors for
automotive and industrial applications.
Offered in a compact 5.5 mm by 4
mm by 5.7 mm package, the Vishay
Semiconductors
single-channel
TCPT1600X01 and dual-channel
TCUT1600X01 feature an increased
dome height compared with previous-
generation devices.
Thanks to their tall dome design, the
devices released today offer more
vertical headroom for the code wheel
in turn-and-push applications. They
can be used as position sensors
for encoders in high-temperature
environments close to motors, in
addition to turn knobs, ignition locks,
and adaptive headlights. Both sensors
can detect motion and speed. With
dual channels, the TCUT1600X01
can also be used to detect direction in
applications such as electronic power
steering (ESP) systems.
The single-channel TCPT1600X01
includes an infrared emitter and
phototransistor detector located face-
to-face in a surface-mount package,
while the dual-channel TCUT1600X01
includes an infrared emitter and
two phototransistor detectors. Both
sensors deliver a typical output current
of 1.6 mA and operate at a wavelength
of 950 nm. The devices feature a 3
mm gap width and apertures of 0.3
mm, and they operate over a wide
temperature range of -40 °C to +105
°C.
With a Moisture Sensitivity Level
rating of 1 (MSL1), the TCPT1600X01
and TCUT1600X01 have an unlimited
floor life. Compatible with reflow solder
processes according to JEDEC-STD-
020D, the devices are halogen-free,
RoHS-compliant, and Vishay Green.
Samples and production quantities of
the optical sensors are available now,
with lead times of eight to 10 weeks for
larger orders.
