Overview of Resistor Families (Continued)
Bourns® pulse resistors and current sense resistors are highly specialized for applications such
as motor drives and industrial equipment. The resistor typically has a very small value and
provides a measure of current in critical areas of the circuit. Bourns® pulse resistors are capable of
withstanding surges without a material change in the characteristics of the resistor.
Bourns offers the CRA, CRF, CRM and PWR pulse and current sense resistors in typical package
styles such as through-hole, bent metal and TO-220 configurations. DPAK and D²PAK are available
as well.
Bourns® CHF series are high frequency RF power resistors. Specialized for RF applications
and high frequency signals, they are commonly used in GSM, UMTS, and WiMax interfaces
with standard circuits such as isolators, combiners, and duplexers and in television and radio
applications in combiner and divider interfaces. These parts are available in the 9 GHz range with
power ratings up to 1 kW. The Bourns® CHF series is set apart from other high frequency resistors
by its material and construction. High quality copper and solid construction provide superior
characteristics. Bourns® CHF resistors are constructed with a thick film process. Bourns has
decades of successful experience with this process, and a customized resistor can be created if a
specific requirement is not met by a standard part.
