Z Power Resistors - High Power and High Frequency Without Compromise

The need for resistors with both high frequency performance and high power handling capability is growing. In most cases, the smaller the resistor, the better performance at high frequencies. At the same time, the larger the resistor, the better the thermal properties are. Many designers are making compromises when both power and performance matter.

IMS has solved this dilemma with an innovative resistor that offers the best of both worlds called “Z Power resistors”. The Z Power device is offered as a termination or as a feed through component. The terminal styles are available in SZG (Single Wrap to Ground) suitable for use as a traditional termination, EZW (Extended Wrap) used commonly as an SMT style termination and WZA (Wrap Around) used as a feed through load.
