Passive Plus Inc. (PPI) produces high quality and a broad variety of resistors and thin film components (standard and custom designed). Facilities include an in-house RF lab that enables PPI to characterize both commercial and MIL-PRF-55342 Class H qualified parts. Capabilities include, but are not limited to, filled vias, gold bumping and castellations on substrates from AlN to Quartz. Standard lead times are typically four to eight weeks.
Thin film resistors are typically used for applications that require high stability, high accuracy or low noise. Such applications may include test and measurement equipment, monitoring equipment, medical equipment, audio applications, precision controls and instrumentation.
Thin film resistors are also able to achieve much lower tolerances and resistor temperature coefficients, have lower noise, lower parasitic inductance and lower capacitance. As a result, thin film resistors are stable at much higher frequencies and will be significantly more stable over their lifetime compared to thick film resistors.
