The MBA0204 is offered with special wire terminations which can be either welded or soldered. Traditionally, the resistors are used on the PCB. However, automotive sensor applications require welding or soldering of resistors on lead frames. The special termination wire material options include coppered steel (FeCu), nickel (Ni), and coppered silver (CuAg), which are more suitable for such mounting processes, offered upon request. These resistors also exhibit great TCR for such under the hood (high temperature) automotive applications, excellent long-term stability under harsh operating conditions, mechanical robustness in terms of high tensile strength, and high electrical conductivity of the special wires.
