Cost Savings and Reducing Circuit Size

As RCS series resistors have enhanced power dissipation and pulse withstanding capabilities, they can be used to reduce component count, or to replace standard chip resistors with smaller RCS series parts. For example, two standard 1206 size chip resistors can be replaced with a single RCS1206 part while maintaining the necessary power dissipation and pulse capabilities. This type of component count reduction will reduce pick and place manufacturing costs. As another example, a single RCS0603 size resistor can replace a larger 1206 size standard chip resistor, reducing the area of expensive “real estate” of the circuit board occupied by the resistor. These are just a couple examples of using RCS series parts during circuit design; however, the possibilities are endless!
