This standard covers thick film general purpose rectangular leadless discrete fixed resistors with temperature coefficients of ± 350 PPM/°C (ranging from ± 50 PPM/°C to ± 350 PPM/°C) and greater and resistance tolerances of ± 5% (ranging from ± 0.5% to ± 5%) and greater for use in surface mounting applications using soldering techniques.

Typical Construction Characteristics

The termination shall include a leach-resistant barrier layer, made of nickel or an equivalent material. The barrier layer shall be covered with a layer of solderable material
