PCB real estate can be very valuable when miniaturization is a design goal. As CRCW-HP series parts have higher power ratings compared to standard thick-film chip resistors, the CRCW-HP series is the perfect solution to reduce the cost of PCB production and to reduce valuable board space occupied by resistors. For example, the CRCW0805-HP size with power rating 0.5W is capable of replacing two standard 1206 sized resistors, using 75% less space which is substantial. One CRCW1206-HP can replace one standard CRCW2010, occupying 58% less space. Reducing resistor component count on the PCB by using the high power resistors will also help to reduce pick and place costs during PCB production.
