Newark launches Panasonic ERJPC Series: Thin-film precision in a thick-film footprint

What happened

Newark is now selling the new ERJPC series of super high-precision thick-film resistors from Panasonic Industry. The series delivers precision levels previously only achievable with thin-film technology: a TCR as low as 25ppm/K and tolerances down to ±0.1% and ±0.5%, with up to double the power density of traditional thin-film solutions (0.2W in a 0603 size and 0.25W in 0805), enabling designers to shrink layouts by replacing larger components. The parts are AEC-Q200 compliant and RoHS certified, with applications including Battery Management Systems, Engine/Electronic Control Units, Industrial Automation and Consumer Electronics. Clara Lagomarsini, Product Manager Device Solution Business Division at Panasonic Industry, said the thick-film technology is a real alternative to thin-film implementations offering long-term cost efficiency, while Andy Weatherill, VP Global Product, Supply Chain, Newark, said adding ERJPC to the Panasonic portfolio gives customers a high-precision solution supporting board downsizing and long-term cost savings.
