1206 current sense resistor handles 0.5 W

The WSK1206 SMT Power Metal Strip resistor is now available with a high-power option (18) that provides an extended 0.5-W power rating — twice that of a standard 1206 size. The chip also has a Kelvin four-terminal connection that reduces TCR down to 35 ppm/°C and enables tight tolerances of 1% to 0.1%.

The resistor comes in values as low as 0.01 Ω. It features a solid metal nickel-chrome or manganese-copper resistive element with low TCR (
