Wide terminal current detecting resistor

TE Connectivity's (TE) CGS RLW73 wide-end current detection resistor features a reliable multilayer electrode construction with long-side terminals and a high purity alumina substrate for high power consumption. The series offers up to 3W of high power in the 1225 configuration, with resistance values ranging from 10mΩ to 750mΩ.

These resistors are wide-ended variants of the RL73 series. The wide-terminal RLW73 surface mount design is suitable for automatic placement and reflow soldering. Other features include space and cost savings on the PCB and high power dimension ratio. TE CGS RLW73 Wide end current sensing resistors are ideal for LED lighting, robotics, automation control, power management, industrial machinery, consumer electronics, medical and more.
