Type RL73 Series

TE Connectivity's RL73 series satisfies the demand for a low ohmic shunt resistor to act as a current sensor

Image of TE Connectivity's Type RL73 Series TE Connectivity offers their RL73 series thick film chip resistor for current sensing positions. It has a special metal glaze resistive element and a nickel barrier layer beneath the solder to prolong terminal life. Following the developments by semiconductor manufacturers in the production of a range of ICs for battery charge management and low voltage power supplies, the RL73 Series satisfies the demand for a low ohmic shunt resistor to act as a current sensor.
