The CRCW-IF series has become very popular as the electronic industry trends towards high pulse handling chip resistors in applications demanding high surge requirements with different case sizes, such as automotive, industrial, medical, military, avionics, and alternative energy. With increased pulse capabilities compared to standard parts, the CRCW-IF may also turn out to be a technical surge protection solution in circuitry as a gate resistor, a snubber resistor, or as transient protection in electronics overall.
