The carbon film MELF resistor’s contacts are built from steel termination caps, plated with pure matte tin on nickel, and support excellent solderability. The protective lacquer ensures the component’s moisture resistivity, verified according to the 85°C/85% biased humidity test for 42 days. The carbon film MELF resistor's reliability has been proven in various automotive and industrial applications in which the resistor is exposed to harsh operating environments, including high humidity and high temperature.
