WSLP5931

Part: WSLP3921L2000FEA — Vishay Dale

Type: Power Metal Strip Resistor

Description: Surface-mount Power Metal Strip resistors with very low resistance values (down to 0.0001 Ω) and high power ratings (to 15 W), suitable for current sensing, voltage division, and pulse applications.

Operating Conditions:

• Operating temperature: -65 to +170 °C
• Maximum working voltage: (P x R) 1/2

Key Specs:

• Power rating (at 70 °C): 5.0 W to 15.0 W (model dependent)
• Resistance value range: 0.0001 Ω to 4 mΩ
• Tolerance: 1.0%, 5.0%
• Very low inductance: 0.5 nH to 5 nH
• Low thermal EMF: < 3 μV/°C
• Component temperature coefficient (TCR): Varies by resistance value, e.g., +50 ppm/°C for WSLP3921 (1.5m Ω to 4m Ω) and ±75 ppm/°C for WSLP5931 (1m Ω to 4m Ω)
• Thermal resistance: Varies by resistance value and model, e.g., 0.9 °C/W for WSLP3921 (0.1m Ω)
• Element TCR: < 20 ppm/°C

Vishay Dale

• Consult factory for detailed TCR performance across full temperature range as performance is resistance value specific
• 'Temperature Coefficient of Resistance for Current Sensing' white paper: www.vishay.com/doc?30405
• (1) Component TCR - total TCR that includes the TCR effects of the resistor element and the copper terminal
• (2) Element TCR - only applies to the alloy used for the resistor element
• (3) Maximum working voltage - the WSL is not voltage sensitive, but is limited by power / energy dissipation and is also not ESD sensitive
