Micromax 0042Z delivers 10K Ω/sq ultra-high resistance with negative TCR characteristic and exceptional ESD stability — engineered for small sized chip resistor applications with high speed laser trimmability and 850°C fast firing.
Micromax 0042Z is a negative TCR thick film paste specifically developed for chip resistor applications requiring 10K Ω/sq ultra-high resistance with negative temperature coefficient of resistance direction. This grade features Negative TCR Position, with options available for different TCR positions across 10Ω, 100Ω, 1KΩ, and 10KΩ resistance values. It delivers excellent power handling stability to withstand demanding operating conditions, exceptional ESD stability for sensitive circuit designs, and low noise performance meeting MIL-STD-202 standards.
This resistor paste offers high speed laser trimmability for precise resistance adjustment, enabling tight tolerance manufacturing. It provides excellent blendability with both lower and higher ohm Micromax 00X1 resistor members, achieving good linearity across a wide resistance range from 70mΩ to 10MΩ. The formulation is insensitive to firing profile and chip size variations, supporting consistent production yields. It is compatible with Micromax 5426 and 5421E Ag/Pd terminations. The cadmium-free, nickel-free and phthalate-free formulation meets international environmental standards including RoHS and REACH. Standard packaging options are 100G and 1000G.
